The Independent Review of Gymnastics New Zealand outlines recommendations to improve or change our gymnastics culture and eliminate identified poor practices, processes and behaviour.

Gymnastics New Zealand has a deep commitment to leading and driving change in our sport’s culture and to ensure the practices and beliefs that led to the hurt and suffering of our community members cannot happen again.

The open process of appointing a  Steering Committee, to enact the recommendations from the review, has started. Feedback is being sought from all who are interested. See how you can have your say through this process.

The Sport and Recreation Complaints and Mediation Service and Safe Sport mechanisms below are still available for anyone wanting to submit a complaint or concern.

See also the review website for more information.

The Independent Complaints Mechanism (ICM) has now been replaced by the newly stood up Sport and Recreation Complaints and Mediation Service (SRCMS), operated independently by Immediation New Zealand for the whole sport and recreation sector.

To lodge a complaint or dispute, please call 0800 493 612.

See also the Sport and Recreation Complaints and Mediation Service website.

The Sport and Recreation Complaints and Mediation Service (SRCMS) is a safe and independent way for anyone engaged in sport and active recreation to lodge a complaint, issue or dispute and have it resolved in a timely manner. The service is free and is open to anyone involved in community sport and recreation as well as elite sport.

The service is operated by Immediation New Zealand Limited, an online dispute resolution company which has been contracted by Sport NZ. It is wholly independent of Sport NZ, High Performance Sport New Zealand and all other sporting bodies, clubs and organisations.

Gymnastics NZ is committed to ensuring that our sport is providing positive experiences, for all involved. If anyone has something they think we need to know in the context of athlete well-being, then please get in touch with us via  SafeSport@gymnasticsnz.com.

This email address will be received by our CEO and the independent Chair of the Sport Integrity Unit.

Based in Auckland, Gymnastics NZ is the national body responsible for the development, promotion, governance and leadership of gymnastics throughout New Zealand. Gymnastics includes both men’s and women’s artistic gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, aerobics and trampoline.

Gymnastics encompasses both Mens (MAG) and Womens (WAG) artistic gymnastics, Rhythmic (RG) gymnastics, Aerobics (AER) and Trampoline (TRA). We believe that we are growing great New Zealanders through gymnastics.
