Mark and Gai Forrest

The NBG Story–

Northern Beaches Gymnastics was established in 1990 by husband and wife team, Mark and Gai Forrest.

Since its initial concept, the club has blossomed into one of Australia's premier sporting facilities, attracting over 1500 members.

 

The NBG gym

In its humble beginnings, NBG began operations out of a school gymnasium, having to set up and pack up every time. Since then, the club has grown into a well-equipped facility, which attracts coaches and gymnasts from all over Sydney.

NBG has always been proud of its tradition of excellence. The time and efforts of the team at NBG have enabled the club to achieve the status as one of Australia's top gymnastics clubs. NBG has been voted 'NSW Club of the Year' in every year from 1994 to 2000.

In March, 2004, a new temporary gymnasiuim was opened giving the club expanded facilities until the move in April 2007 into the permanent quarters in the Pittwater Sports Centre.

Our competition program is well and truly established, with a solid base of uniquely talented gymnasts in both men's and women's artistic gymnastics.

NBG has a history of State and National Champions and has an unmatched number of wins at the National Clubs Competition. In 2006, NBG created history by winning both the men's and women's National Clubs Competition.

NBG is not only a competitive facility. It boasts one of the most successful and popular recreational programs in Australia, offering fun, recreational gymnastics to pre-school and school aged children. These programs have been the breeding ground of some of Australia's top gymnasts. We currently offer programs for children as young as 18 months through to adults.
