GYMNASTICS TEAM
Competitive Team (Level 3 – Level 8)
The Greensburg YMCA Aerials provides an excellent gymnastics experience to children who
participate to have fun while developing physical fitness, coordination, strength, and flexibility. Our goal is to provide a positive, safe, fun environment where each gymnast can learn and grow as an individual gymnast and a teammate. We strive to have each gymnast enjoy being a member of our team, achieve their individual competitive gymnastics goals to the best of their abilities, and simply enjoy gymnastics.
Earning a place on the team or progressing to a higher competitive level is a credit to your
gymnastics skills, attitude, and potential.We participate in the Western Pennsylvania YMCA Girls Gymnastics League. Gymnasts compete in approximately seven league invitationals and two to three championship meetsthroughout each season.
All team members must be a YMCA member in good standing.
