Types of Memberships

A Club Membership shall be granted to each qualified gymnastics club throughout the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador that applies for membership, has been approved by the Board, and paid their membership fees, which shall be set from time to time by the Board of Directors. A qualified gymnastics club shall mean a group of individuals with a minimum of five (5) and no maximum, who have or share a common name and/or interest, facility, coach, or adminstrative facility or function, be they a competitive or a recreational oriented club. Each duly registered Club shall be entitled to receive notice of all meetings of members. Each Club shall designate a delegate to represent the Club at meetings of members and that delegate shall be entitled to one vote on behalf of the Club at each meeting of members. 

GNL offers two types of club memberships for clubs to avail of; Recreational and Full Club

This option is for clubs running Active Start, CanGym, or CanJump programs, and any other approved programming outside of pre-competitive and competitive programs. 

This option is for clubs operating recreational programming as well as pre-competitive and competitive programming. 

• It is important for clubs to register all of their participants at least once (deadline is June 30 in each program year, July 1 - June 30). Failure to register participants may place a club in jeopardy in the event that an unregistered participant is injured, as the insurance program requires all participants to be registered. 

• Please note that every participant in a club’s programs must be registered with GNL for the current year in the appropriate program catagory. For example, competitive athlete registered in competitive, recreational program athlete in recreational. Participants registered as recreational, but training under pre-competitive or competitive guidelines is not permitted.

• Up-Grading information - Any athlete may deem to be competitive by virtue of entering a GNL sanctioned competition by the deadline indicated on the meet entry form. The athletes updgraded registration must be uploaded, with applicable fees a minimum of 1 week prior to the competition deadline. This includes registration fees for the competition, up-grading fee for the athlete(s) and the upgrading fee for the club if it is not already registered as competitive for that program.

• GNL currently uses Uplifter as its primary database but member clubs may choose to use a program that best suits their needs.

• Clubs must submit their uploads of new registrations by the 15th of each month following the procedure outlined above.

Each season clubs will be required to renew membership in order to remain in good standing with Gymnastics Newfoundland & Labrador.

The following club memberships are required to be purchased annually:

• Full Club Membership (competitive and recreational programs)
• Recreation Club Membership (recreational programs only)
