Questions & Answers
This page is to answer questions we get a
lot. If you still have questions, please email our president, Sandra Dube (sdube@email.unc.edu)
Q: Are there certain skill requirements to
be on the team?
A: No, club gymnastics is ALL about FUN!
NAIGC uses modified level 9 rules in competitions, but lower levels are usually
sufficient. For example, we have
some gymnasts compete back handsprings and tucks on floor, while others do
twists—lots of variance. Come
and join with any level of skill.
Q: Is it ok if I haven’t done
gymnastics in a few years?
A: Yes, many of our members had not competed
for several years and picked it back up at UNC.
Q: Do I have to compete?
A: No, competitions are optional, but
encouraged. Meets are always fun
and never stressful. The choice is
yours. The only requirement to
compete at NAIGC nationals is that you compete in two meets earlier in the
season. This is an NAIGC rule.
Q: Can you join at any point during the
year?
A: Yes, come to practice and all you need to
do is fill out a safety waiver and pay club dues ($30/semester). (Dues were increases slightly this year
in order to help pay for our spring trip to nationals in
Q: Where and when do you practice?
A: We practice in Fetzer Gym C on Tuesdays
and Thursdays from 7-9pm, and on Saturdays from 12-3pm.
