This is an achieve competition for students to represent their school in a competitive environment.

This year we have launched the new British Gymnastics Format RISE. Rise Gymnastics has been designed to give every gymnast the opportunity to shine. Rise uses a positive scoring system where gymnasts are awarded points, instead of receiving deductions. The competition format puts children’s experience at the heart of the competition.

The competition will be split into 3 strands (Core Skills, Large apparatus & Small apparatus) A copy of all the routines and disciplines are below via the link.

Year 1&2 Will work at level 1 or 2 for all 3 strands.

Year 3&4 Will work at level 2 or 3 for all 3 strands.

Year 5&6 Will work at level 3 or 4 for all 3 strands

Core Skills – A core skills routine will consist of at least 5 skills at each level (as the levels rise the routine may include more skills). Where more than one skill appears, the gymnast / teacher should select the most appropriate skill to suit the pupil. We encourage gymnasts to add travel or choreography when transitioning from skill to skill. Additional points will NOT be given for this.

Large apparatus – Vault. Gymnasts will perform tow vaults for this strand. There are two different vaults they can perform however they may perform the same vault twice and be scored for both.

Small apparatus – Ribbon – A Small apparatus routine consists of at least five skills at each level. Where more than one skill appears, the gymnast / teacher should select the most appropriate skill to suit the pupil. The skills in this routine will be performed using a Ribbon throughout.

Teams will be made up of between 5-10 pupils will each pupil receiving a individual score for each strand to make a combined score for the competition.

Schools may enter 1 team of up to 10 pupils per competition.
