Maverick Gymnastics Club is home to a USA Gymnastics Developmental Program Competition Gymnastics Team – Levels 2 through Level 10 and USA Gymnastics Xcel Program Levels – Bronze through Sapphire.
Maverick Gymnastics Club believes in well-rounded gymnastics instruction that includes dance and strength training as a regular part of practice. The team focus will be based on the following principles:
-
Respect yourself. Dress for the occasion. Be sure your hair is up appropriately for practice. Eat a well balanced diet to keep your body healthy. If you are sick with fever, stay home and rest. Drink plenty of water. Sleep enough!
-
Respect your parents, guardians and family members. They sacrifice so that you can pursue your gymnastics dreams. Without a good support system, you won’t get far. Thank them often, even if it feels awkward.
-
Respect the sport. Gymnastics should not be taken for granted. Be mentally and physically prepared before performing any gymnastics skills. Stay focused and pay attention to what the coaches are asking you to do. If you do not understand, Please ask!
-
Respect all teammates, coaches, students in the gym and their family members. Speak politely. Use manners, say “please” and “thank you.” Everyone in the gym is important.
-
Respect the gym. Treat all equipment with care. Ask before moving a piece of equipment. Share with everyone. If you get something out, Put it away.
-
Arrive at the gym before practice. Be prepared to make at least one improvement from the last practice. If you are having a bad day, Don't Make It Everyone Else's Problem.
-
Leave the gym on a good note – say goodbye to your friends and teammates, your coaches, other families. Be excited to come back for the next practice. Don’t let a bad practice prevent you from being ready to try again.
-
Stretching, strength, dance and other physical conditioning are just as important as gymnastics. Work hard at all of these to make yourself a well-rounded athlete.
-
Work hard at school. Gymnastics may help you get into college, but you won’t go anywhere without good grades.
-
Remember that someone is always looking up to you – do not disappoint. Even in your bad days, you can teach a younger child a lot by choosing to behave in a positive manner in any situation.
Your child’s enthusiasm for gymnastics is the most important part of our coach/parent relationship. We must work together to help your children achieve as much as they desire from this sport.
Please feel free to contact us if you have specific questions about our team program. We would welcome the chance to talk with you.
