Welcome to the University of Leicester Gymnastics Team

Who are we?

We are the gymnastics team for the University of Leicester. We have only been running since 2024, so we are a very new society, but 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, 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 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.
