This year we managed to carry out our annual gala, which is always a good source of fundraising and enjoyed by gymnasts, parents and coaches alike. We are now busy preparing the 2024 Gala. Waterside gym club also realise the importance of coach involvement and development and pay for all necessary training courses. During the year we have put though four level 1 coaches in both Team Gym and Artistic. We also have a further seven booked on for this year. We have also had two coaches go onto undertake their level 3 qualifications. During the year in order to keep our junior coaches we introduced a £1.50 per hour pay increase. We lost one Head coach during the year that led to the closure of a squad, we managed to secure a place in other sections to enable the gymnasts to continue. We are also actively looking for new qualified coaches and parents to join our bank of parent helpers as the club cannot survive without this support. All coaches are also required to complete regular safeguarding courses and have a valid DBS in order to ensure not only the physical safety of the children involved but also their personal and mental well-being.** ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |||| |---|---|---| |Achievements against
