OLGA  FACILITIES INCLUDED FOR
           LONDON 2012
We are pleased to announce that OLGA Gymnastics & Trampoline Club will be included in the London 2012 Pre-Games Training Camp Guide.  This follows confirmation received from the London 2012 Organising Committee on 3rd March.  The bid for inclusion was submitted at the beginning of last year and we have been successful in the selection process and recognized for our outstanding facilities.  These guides will be distributed to participating nations at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games outlining the opportunities for National Olympic Committees to train in the UK leading up to London 2012.  We now hope to secure major gymnastic and trampoline teams to train at our facilities in the months leading up to the games

  

Parent & Toddler, Stand Alone Classes,
      Bouncing Babes & Tiny Tiggers
We have decided this year to suspend these classes during the month of August.  Many of our members are away for some of the weeks or if the weather is good, spend their days on the beach but still have to pay for a month of classes.As an alternative, we will offer open sessions as part of our Summer Activities programme, specifically for these age groups which will enable you to attend as many or as few as you can.  You will automatically be enrolled for September so your place will be secured unless you advise us otherwise.
Full details of these activities will be available very soon.
