Terms & Conditions

TERMS & CONDITIONS

All GHOH Gymnastic Club participants must abide by the following guidelines in addition to the relevant codes of conduct and other policies that the club adopts.

BEHAVIOUR OF PARENTS/GUARDIANS

  • Any parent/nanny caught being rude to any member of staff will mean expulsion of their child/children from the club. Non-members that are visiting for holiday classes will be removed from our waiting list.

DROP OFF AND PICK UP

  • Please be on time when dropping off or collecting your child. If you have arranged for someone else to pick up the child please inform the coach in charge. We will not let children leave with other people if we have not been informed.


PARTICIPATION DURING CLASS

  • Warm up is very important, try to be on time. If you are more than 15 minutes late you won't be allowed to join in the session. Please do check the roads or tubes for any traffic problems.


Inform the coach at the start of a session if gymnasts are feeling ill, have a previous injury or if any medical conditions have changed.

  • Gymnasts must wear appropriate clothing. No tops with anything dangling from it or long frills/skirts attached. No skirts, anything with zips, friendship bands on either wrist or ankles, belts or jeans. This protects the gymnast, coach and the equipment.


  • Any bands that are worn for religious reasons can stay on but will be taped.
  • Please only bring a named water bottle (no juice) into the Gym and put your shoes in the allocated spot. 
  • Long hair must be tied back as it can be hazardous. Please try to remember a hair band.
  • Gymnasts must not go on the equipment without supervision of the coach.
  • Gymnasts that do not listen, behave in an inappropriate manner, who may be a danger to themselves and/or to others and will be asked to sit out for the rest of the session. This is for the safety of other club members and the coaches.
  • Bullying is not tolerated. Any member who is found to be bullying will be suspended from the club.
  • Jewellery is not permitted to be worn in the gym during training. This is a British Gymnastics requirement and your British Gymnastics Insurance will be invalid if this is not adhered to. Earrings or any other piercings can be taped if they have just been pierced, but for no longer than 6 weeks. After this period they must be taken out.
  • GHOH Gymnastics accept no responsibility for any property left anywhere on site. 

FEES

  • Fees must be paid in full before the start of the next term. Existing customers will have a Priority Booking Period before the places are opened up to the waiting lists. If payment is not received by the end of the Priority Booking Period the place WILL be offered to other people and the individual concerned will be put on our waiting lists.
  • Regardless of how long you have been with us we cannot accept any excuses for non-payment.
  • Please do pay on time if you wish your child/children to stay at the club. Thank you.

ABSENCE

  • Classes will not be carried over but your child may attend another class in replacement of the missed class ONLY IF there is a space available, if the class is full then there is nothing we can do.
