RETURNING ATHLETE TRYOUT INFORMATION
*As we near the end of the 2024-2025 gymnastics season, we hope to keep our focus on the upcoming state meets and end of year festivities. If you are returning to gym team next season, you will just need to fill out the form below and email it in to gymnastics@excitegym.com by May 12th, and are welcome to send it in prior to that date. The handbook for the new season will be available on or before April 21st.
*If you are sadly not returning to Excite! gym team next year, we ask that you wait to email in until after our state meet season has ended, and that any emails withdrawing from team are sent on (not before) Monday, May 12th. This is so that we can all remain in good spirits and focus on having a fun and positive state meet!
-This will serve as your notice to withdraw from team, and you will not be billed any future fees. Per the gymnastics handbook, your gymnast will not attend any team practices or events after withdrawing from team.
-If your athlete is wanting to switch back into a class setting, please include that in your email and we will be happy to get you more information on transitioning back into classes!
