We are the gymnastics team for the University of Leicester. Created in 2024, our first year has been incredibly successful and rewarding. We’ve built a vibrant and inclusive community for students of all abilities, whether you’re an elite gymnast, a complete beginner looking to try something new or rekindling an old hobby. Our society offers a mix of training sessions, social events, and opportunities to compete. In 2024-2025 we competed in the UGC league and in 2025-2026 we will be competing in UGC again as well as BUCS. We take pride in fostering a supportive environment where everyone can progress at their own pace while having fun and building lasting friendships and communities.
