LONDON GYMNASTICS
GfA Levels
London Gymnastics for All Competition Levels for 2017.
New
levels have been introduced for the 2017 GfA floor
and vault competition programme. The levels are
designed to be achievable, but progressive,
to help both gymnasts and coaches
focus on the development of core skills. Gymnast must be born in 2010 or
earlier to compete in GfA 2017 competitions.
Badge Tariffs for GfA
levels 1-2
At levels 1 and 2, gymnasts receive a sticker
for floor and another for vault that is equivalent to a bronze, silver or gold
standard.
The combination of the two stickers, which are given out immediately
after the routine or vault has been judged,
determines the gymnasts overall
medal and whether they move up to the next GfA Level (see table below).
