Our Marriotts Gymnastics Club Award Scheme is a progressive programme.

The scheme has 24 awards in total, starting at Red Level 1 and finishing at Purple Level 8. Each level is divided into three sections with its own award of either a bronze ribbon, a silver ribbon or a gold medal.

Gymnasts are tested on skills on the equipment that is used in their classes - vault, trampoline, trampette, bars, beam and floor and will commence on a level suitable to their age and/or ability.
