National Gymnastics Facilities Guidelines

Solucio was engaged to provide a clear understanding of the current and future requirements for gymnastics facilities in Australia.

The objective of this project was to align planning and development objectives for facilities with that of government, community and industry partners, raising community awareness about the role gymnastics plays in developing physical literacy and fundamental movement skills.

The methodology of this project involved:

• An extensive consultation process with state and national representatives, event and coaching staff, gymnastics club owners and managers, architects, designers and gymnastics equipment suppliers.

The outcome was a National Facilities Guidelines which details Gymnastics Australia’s recommendations and preferred standards for gymnastics facilities which will support gymnastics clubs and other stakeholders with the provision, improvement and enhancement of gymnastics facilities across Australia.

The organisation recognised the document as “the most comprehensive gymnastics facility resource ever produced”.
