Star League

What is Star League Gymnastics?

Seattle Gymnastics Academy offers a wide variety of programs for children of all ages and abilities. Star League gymnastics allows a recreational gymnast the opportunity to experience competitive gymnastics and be a part of a team. SGA Star League gymnasts compete at various competitions in the Seattle area and represent their team as SGA. Each class constitutes a team with a name and a uniform that sets them apart from the other teams. This program is open to recreational gymnasts ages five and up who successfully complete the tryout. Tryouts need to be scheduled ahead of time with the front desk.

Star League class size is limited to approximately 9-10 students per coach and teams are formed based on age and skill ability. The curriculum includes skill development and routines on Floor, Uneven Bars, Vault and Beam. The teams are named within Divisions of competition - "A", "AA", and "AAA." And here's the neat thing: the teams compete as a group, not as individuals. Everybody's score is added up and the team wins or places as a group, removing most of the jitters.

Competitions: The competitive season is 13 weeks in length. There are usually 4-5 competitions and a championship competition to conclude the season.

Competition fees are calculated at the beginning of each season and you will be notified to pay at the SGA front desk when you enroll in the class. Generally, the fee is $125 for the season. The fee must be paid regardless of whether you attend any or all of the meets.

Coaching Staff: The Star League staff is a group of energetic, qualified and fun instructors. They are committed to providing a fun, safe and exciting learning experience. Our staff is eager to have a great SGA League team.

Tryouts: Gymnasts must tryout before they can sign-up for AA or AAA, but tryouts can be any time of year. Talk to your coach if you think your gymnast would enjoy the Star League experience. Then, please call the front desk to schedule a tryout. 206 362 7447.
