Information for Participants

Inclusive Leader Clubs

Inclusive Leader Clubs are recognised by Gymnastics Victoria for having programming, policies and procedures which support underrepresented groups, including people with additional support needs. These clubs meet the standard of our inclusive club guidelines and have also provided inclusion awareness training for their staff. They may offer both mainstream and specialist or private classes; you will need to contact the club directly to discuss the best option for you and/or your child.
