Acrobay Gymnastics Trust
Sport
We would like to buy specialised gymnastics equipment to benefit children in our free running and teenager classes.
About this cause
Acrobay is club who moved to Rosyth in June '16 after outgrowing their training venue in Dalgety Bay. We provide gymnastics classes for children from 9mths old to adults. We opened in Primrose Lane in June '16 with 200 members which has quickly grown to our current membership of around 1000, this helped us be awarded Scottish Gymnastics most prestigious award of Club of the Year 2016. We give children in the local community the opportunity to take part in physical activity which previously they maybe didn't have access to. The classes for the younger children give an introduction to balance, co-ordination, motor skills, all of which are a fantastic base for their future development. We also have a competitive side of the club where we have many Scottish Champions and British Champions
How this cause brings people in the community together
It would encourage more teenagers to join the class and current members to stay as equipment would be more challenging and more suited to their age group as they currently use preschool equipment. This would a great benefit to the community as its welcoming teenagers off the streets and getting them involved in physical activity.
