ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
COSTS
Competitive Season Prices:
AAU membership fee: $20 +taxes, fees
Membership is required to compete in any AAU sanctioned competitions and every team member must be registered. Your membership serves as secondary insurance for competitions. The membership is valid until August 31st of the competitive season, regardless of when the membership was purchased.
Meet Registrations: $60-$80 per meet
Team Leotard (Level 1-4): $150 (approximate)
**We try to keep leotards two seasons. This season we will be getting new leotards**
Warm up: $100-$150 (approximate) **We keep warm-ups until they no longer offer that style**
Fees for the above are not usually due until fall (September).
MEETS
Andover gymnasts have the opportunity to attend approximately 7 meets each season. A few of these are mandatory and are decided when the meet schedule is set (November). These are usually our district meet in (May) and our home meet (Jan or Feb). Information for all meets is sent out via email and it is up to the parent to pay online or at a YMCA front desk. Meet fees are due as they are sent out during the season.
FUNDRAISING
The fiscal year for the Andover YMCA Gymnastics team is from September to August. Each year, gymnasts and their parents may raise money to support uniform costs, meet fees, supplies for running a meet, and equipment costs. Every family involved with the team has an option to opt in or out of fundraising. Opting in means your family will participate in all fundraising activities during the season and will then benefit by receiving fundraising money. We participate in 1-5 fundraising activities each season. Our host meet(s) are always exempt from this as EVERYONE on team is required to help.
This is just an overview of our team. We will also have a more informative meeting about everything at the beginning of the season in August/September. If you have other questions, please call or email Shannon Mallinson, Gymnastics Director Shannon.Mallinson@wichitaymca.org or Danni Hybsha, Gymnastics Coordinator Danni.hybsha@wichitaymca.org
