JUDGE EDUCATION

GymSports New Zealand, as the national sports organisation for gymsports in New Zealand, is responsible for the provision of educational opportunities for the GymSports community. We aim to provide a range of eductional opportunities to cater for all GymSports at all levels.

The coach/judge education and accreditation programmes are progressive and have been designed to meet the professional development needs of coaches and judges in New Zealand. The programme has been developed with NZ requirements as a priority and with the flexibility to allow coaches/judges to attend courses in the local area as much as possible.

COURSE ORGANISATION/GENERAL COURSE INFORMATION

Most courses are set at the beginning of the year, however additional courses will be added in during the year as the need for them arises so please continue check the calendar for updates. 

Organisation for courses already in the education calendar: 

Approximately 10 weeks prior to a course a club will be approached to hold the course (or a club may approach GSNZ to host the course).  Once the host club has been confirmed the registration forms will be put on the website with a closing date 2 weeks prior to the course.  All payments for courses will be sent to the host club.  GymSports New Zealand will organise presenters and all resources for each course.

Organisiation for courses that clubs would like to request:

Courses are usually requested in response to an identified need. Once approved advertising can be sent out/put on the website. PLease contact your local GymSports Officer for a request form.
