Girls Competitive Gymnastics at NGC puts an emphasis on team unity, strength and perseverance. Athletes enter our competitive program through tryouts, team prep class (held in the spring) or our year-round pre-team class (cool shots).
Athletes and families may choose which association best fits their schedules, budget and lifestyle at NGC. We do our best to work with families so that competitive gymnastics is an enjoyable part of their athletes childhood.
If you are interested in competitive gymnastics and having your athlete assessed, please contact Mark Morphew (Mark@Northfieldgymnastics.com) or Krystal Wallerich (Krystal@Northfieldgymnastics.com) for more information.
