To all the athletes that did not make 360 or Challenger squads please don’t be discouraged. The last
few years have been difficult to achieve the kind of training conditions that produce high level
gymnastics, but we can see some good work being done. The 360 selectors would like to encourage
coaches and athletes to look at ways to embed the 360 testing (skills, functional movement
sequence and key strength indicators) into your programmes for the season ahead. These exercises
when combined with the national levels programme provide good building blocks to develop a 360
athlete.
For all 360 Future, 360 Youth, Senior National Team and Senior Challenger athletes, you and your
coaches are invited to join the National Camp scheduled for:
13-16 October
Tri Star Gymnastics
Starting at 10:00am 13/10
Concluding at 3:00pm 16/10.
(a more comprehensive timetable will be sent direct to clubs).
All 360 Excel and Challenger athletes, your first regional clinic will be either:
North: 19-20 November at Harbour (Venue TBC)
Central: 12-13 November at Kapiti
South: 12-13 November at CSG
If you have any queries and to confirm your attendance at the national camp, please contact
david.phillips@tristar.org.nz.


Kind regards,
David Phillips
360 Lead Coach
