NEW WEBSITE AND WINDOWS LIVE

Astro's new website (this one) goes live and starts to rank up.  We hope to keep this website full of information, however we now have a MSN windows live group page which will only be accessable to Astro members, through an invite. The unofficial Astro bebo will still be available but we recommend that you get hooked up with the Window's Live Group.

Help your club raise funds, and find yourself a bargain in the process!  Astro has recently joined the Easyfundraising web site.
 
As many more of us shop online, costs to retailers are greatly reduced, and this allows retailers to offer "donations" based on a percentage, or other value of your purchase.  So here is how it works, Its really simple (honest).

Tell your friends and family to do the same and we make money while your save money.

DISPLAY TEAM NEWS
2 NEW DISPLAY ROUTINES IN PROGRESS......TOP SECRET!!!
 
COMPETITION NEWS
It's been a successful 2009 as far as competition work is concerned.  We achieved Silver Medals at the British Championships, dozens of medals at the Scottish Championships and East of Scotland Championships.  We ran a very successful Club Championships for NDP routines as well as an individual age group competition which every gymnast in the club had the opportunity to take part in.  This is a great way of getting gymnasts involved in competition in a relaxed environment and was very popular, we will definately be repeating this format next year.
Club Championships, 13th March 2010
Well done to everyone who took part in the Club Championships.  The gymnasts all really enjoyed competing.  What was apparent to me was that even the youngest gymnasts taking part took it very seriously, listened to their coaches and had big smiles on their faces as the judges were watching them.  I was amazed at how organised the little ones were, they remembered everything they were meant to be doing and really enjoyed performing to the judges.  The older ones bowled me over at how much they have improved over the last year, we see them ever week in class making improvements all the time but it's not until we see them in a performance environment that we realise how much they have achieved. Caroline.
Jumblies Christmas Competition 13th Dec 2009
Well done to all gymnasts who took part yesterday.  This is a fun competition and a great opportunity for new gymnasts, or gymnasts moving up a grade, to compete at Avondale before the main competitions next year.  The judges were impressed at the progress we have made this year and all the new competitors did very well and looked confident and happy on the competition floor.
