Dear Parents and Gymnasts
Pat and I would like to inform you that we have decided to
retire from The City of Truro Gymnastics Club from the 19th
December 2009. We would like to say that we have enjoyed our time
at the club with you all, but feel it is time for us to hand over
to Mhairi Whyte.
We would like to thank both parents and gymnasts for your
contribution to the success of the Club, and all who have helped to
develop the Club to its present position in the County. Many
friends, parents and gymnasts have helped in the many activities of
the Club from fund raising to coaching to organising discos,
competition events, providing transport and bringing the children
to gym each week, often several times per week and from a
considerable distance.
We have been involved in gymnastics coaching for 30 years and
have been in the old Boys Club for 24 years and have received much
help and encouragement from Mr Buddell, Chairman of the Boys Club
and his past committees.
Although we have had a great deal of success in gymnastics
competition terms at County, Regional and National levels, we feel
our real success is reflected in the confidence and self awareness
that our gymnasts have obtained from participating in gymnastics as
run with our philosophy of the sport. Our mission has been to
contribute to the health and fitness of the children through
gymnastics.
We have over the years been very lucky with the children who
have been coming to the Club and have many great memories of them.
Naturally we are going to miss them very much especially their joy
of achieving a new skill in the gym. I don't think we can replace
that.
The Club will continue in the capable hands of Miss Mhairi
Whyte.
Mhairi is a fully qualified British Gymnastics Coach and as an
ex gymnast and county champion is quite able to maintain the levels
of coaching expected of Truro Gym Club. She has been training and
being coached by us for over 12 years and is familiar with all our
gymnasts.
We are sure you will continue to support Mhairi in providing
your young gymnast with a rewarding experience of gymnastics within
The City of Truro Gymnastics Club that will last them a
lifetime.
Yours sincerely
Pat and John
