Iceni Gymnastics Club

Training Rules and Procedures

Prior to attending the class

• Please do not attend your class if anyone in your household has symptoms of Coronavirus or feels unwell
• Gymnasts should be dressed ready to train in freshly washed clothes.  Changing in the toilet will not be allowed
• Please ensure hands are washed before leaving the house
• Gymnasts must have a secure bottle of water with them ideally in a plastic container (no juice please as  we wish to avoid sticky spillages).  During our recreational and competition squad classes the bottles will be kept with the gymnasts group on the floor.  For all other classes drinks must be kept behind the barriers and not taken on the floor.

On Arrival

• Entrance will be via the front door.   Please stay with your child until they have been taken into the gym
• Temperatures of coaches and gymnasts will be taken and hand sanitiser to be used on entry. The coach taking the temperature will be wearing a face covering
• Spectators are now allowed in the gym and will be temperature checked on entry. Therefore, you can only enter at the start of the class.  Please do not come in whilst a class is in progress as coaches are not available to temperature check you.  Also, as we only have a small viewing area, to keep our coaches and gymnasts safe, we would appreciate it if you could only stay when necessary.  Only one parent per gymnast please.  We also request that you wear a face covering whilst in the gym.  For classes that cross over, we request that you wait until the previous class has left before entering.
• Don’t forget, when attending our Baby Gym and Parent and Toddler Classes parents need to be with their child throughout the class

During The Class
