Gymnastics Competitions
Springfit are delighted to welcome gymnasts from all our venues and classes to compete in our fun and friendly gymnastics competitions held in July and November every year.
For entry criteria, invites, programmes and other information on our events, please select from the below categories.
Trampette
A trampette is a small, compact square trampoline. Gymnasts sprint down a track, jump onto the tilted trampette, and use the rebound to perform shapes or somersaults before landing safely on a mat.
Tumbling
The act of performing linked gymnastics skills on a specialised floor, air track or spring mat.
Vault
A vault is a piece of apparatus that can be set to a certain height, based on the ability level of the gymnast, and the difficulty of the moves to be performed. Gymnasts run down a track, jumps onto a springboard and then launches toward the vault table. The gymnast then performs shapes, somersaults or twists before landing safely on a mat.

What To Wear
The Judges need to be able to see the correct form when assessing skills, so the clothing worn can really help with this!
Leotards are best and we have these available through our online store. You can also wear your own! If you aren’t comfortable in a Leotard, we recommend a t-shirt and shorts that aren’t baggy. Plain colours will be better, such as plain white or plain black.
Bare feet are necessary.
When & Where?
