Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (WAG) is a dynamic and expressive discipline within the gymnastics community, and we are committed to supporting gymnasts at every stage of their journey, from beginners dedicating up to 4 hours a week to training to those investing more time in honing their skills.
Our comprehensive competition pathway and structure are designed to accommodate all levels of Women’s Artistic Gymnastics, ensuring that every gymnast, regardless of their starting point, has the opportunity to progress and develop. Our goal is to foster the growth of Women’s Artistic Gymnastics through a foundation of fun, positive learning experiences, and consistent encouragement. By offering tailored support and opportunities, we aim to nurture a gymnastics community where every gymnast can thrive, celebrate their achievements, and pursue their passion for Women’s Artistic Gymnastics.

OUR EVENTS
The Regional Pathway is designed to be a more flexible competition pathway, with more accessible rules and greater flexibility around age and level. For example, older gymnasts are able to compete at lower levels, making it suitable for gymnasts who may have started the sport later, train fewer hours or simply need a pathway that allows them to progress at their own pace. Gymnasts within this pathway can also progress towards opportunities such as our Regional Squads.
The National Pathway is what we would consider our more traditional Women’s Artistic Gymnastics pathway. It has been developed for a higher standard of competitive gymnastics, with more structured requirements and less flexibility around age groups and progression. The National Pathway is aimed at gymnasts working towards a higher competitive standard and can ultimately lead to opportunities within our National Squads.
Neither pathway should be viewed as taking away from a gymnast’s achievements – they simply provide different routes so that clubs can select the pathway most appropriate to each gymnast’s age, ability, training and goals. If you are new to IGA competitions, the Regional Pathway is a great place to start.
To enter any IGA Competitions, you will need a Level 2 (multiple level 2’s if entering multiple age groups and levels) and the minimum of 1 assistant judge.
