Dear Gymnast:

I hope you all enjoy your summer! It will not be long before the gymnastics season starts. To better prepare yourself you should be conditioning and working on your flexibility as well as thinking about what goals you would like to accomplish this year.

Practice will begin on August 17th. All practices will be held at JD High School and home meets will be at CNY Gymnastics Center. Each gymnast is expected to be at every practice and meet.

All new gymnasts in 7th and 8th grade must take the NYS Advanced Placement Process test before they are allowed to try out. Please contact your school’s athletic office (JD: 445-8345 or FM: 692-1919) to find out when and where the test will be given. (Packets are available on the JD athletic website under downloads)
