Acro-Gymnastics Centurion offers young athletes the opportunity to participate in a sport that builds sportsmanship, character, discipline, and teamwork. We aim to develop physical ability and leadership through professional coaching and competition.
This agreement outlines the terms and conditions of participation in Acro-Gymnastics Centurion's 2026 program. By signing this contract, the parent/guardian agrees to all terms and conditions contained herein.

2. Team Selection & Membership
  • All duo and trio teams are selected by the coaching staff based on physical compatibility and skill level.
  • Team selections are final and cannot be influenced by personal preference or friendship.
  • The number of routines a gymnast performs will be determined following evaluations during the first few training sessions.

3. Attendance Requirements
Class Schedule:
  • Level 4 and 5:
    ▸ 1 x 90-minute class on Thursdays, 17:30–19:00 at the National Training Centre
  • Level 6, 7 and 8:
    ▸ 1 x 90-minute class on Thursdays, 16:00–17:30 at the National Training Centre
    Attendance is essential. Absence of a team member negatively affects the entire group. A valid doctor’s note is required in the event of illness. Additional practices may be scheduled with advance notice.

  • Gymnasts must arrive on time for proper warm-up.

Practice attire:
A leotard is mandatory. Short ski-pants may be worn over the leotard, provided the upper thigh remains visible.

6. Competition Participation
All teams must:
  • Participate in a minimum of 3 club competitions (excluding internal competition)
  • Achieve the minimum score required to qualify for Gauteng North Trials
Any progression to Gauteng Regionals or National Championships is considered a bonus beyond the primary goal.
