About
The Club - Flips Gymnastics Club
Founded as a small club in 1985 by Sue West and Jenny Pritchard, Flips now has over 300 members.
Sue and Jenny have a wealth of experience and started as competitive Artistic Gymnasts. In 1983 they switched to Acrobatic Gymnastics, going on to represent Great Britain on several occasions as a Women's pair and then as a Women's trio, teaming up with Tina Hall.
They started Flips with an aim to pass on their love of gymnastics to others and to encourage children to participate in the sport.
