Competitions - Star-Tastic Gymnastics

Star-Tastic Gymnastics holds 3 sets of friendly competitions per year.

We welcome all ages and abilities to compete, and are a great way to introduce your children to friendly competitions!

Previously, we have held competitions on the following pieces of equipment:

Floor
Vault
Beam
Springboard
Trampette
Tumbling
Acro
Parkour (speed runs)
Trampolining
Women’s Artistic 4 Piece (Squad only)

Competition groups are based on ability first, groups are then sub-divided based on age. Grouped ages will depend on number of gymnasts competing, we generally try to group gymnasts in 2 year age groups, however, this is not always guaranteed. We present bronze, silver & gold medals, and all gymnasts receive a participation certificate for doing so well.

We often have other activities present at our competitions, such as a snack stand, a raffle, games, and more!

We feel our friendly competitions often give our members an important and fun goal to work towards. This was amplified even more during the last couple of years when we managed to hold 2 competitions during the pandemic; a virtual competition which we worked towards on Zoom and an in-class beam competition just before December. We also held a Squad Competition in class in September. We were so pleased that we were able run our own competitions in November 2021.

Local gymnastics clubs are welcome to attend our competitions! If you’re interested in your club attending please email us (info@startasticgymnastics.com).

page2image51260288 Chase Tag

Parkour chase tag is a game of cat and mouse where the chaser must catch his opponent (the runner) and tag them. This can be anywhere on the body as long as the body is tagged (clothing does not count).

The chaser will have a set time to catch his opponent. What makes this interesting is they must battle it out on a parkour course. The course will be built with multiple levels and platforms to use as an evasion for the runner to getaway. Using their parkour skills to outwit and evade their opponent.

If the runner manages to evade the chaser, they must stay on for the next round to begin against a new opponent, exhaustion now being an additional obstacle they must overcome.

This is a high intensity, high energy challenge. Do you have what it takes to be the champ?

Speed Challenge

Parkour Speed Challenge is a competition against the clock! Across a variety of obstacles, the participant will be time trialled as they move over a set-out course, hoping to have the quickest time of completion to win the competition. The obstacles will force the participants to adjust and adapt their movements to perform the most efficient forward moving route.
