North Harbour Gymnastics Centre (Inc.) is
the product of nearly 40 years of gymnastics development on the North Shore. In 1987
the Centre was established as an amalgamation of the North Shore Gymnastics Club, East
Coast Bays Gymnastics Club, Birkenhead Gymnastics Club and North Shore YMCA Rhythmic
Gymnastics Club. The Centre was able to operate from one venue (apart from rhythmic)
in 1990 when vacant commercial premises were obtained in Kaimahi Place, Wairau
Valley. In 1991 a move was made to Cherry Lane off Porana Road. The final move
was made in August 1992 when the North Shore City Council completed the new stadium known
as the North Shore Events Centre and
Gymnastics
Centre. Since 1992 the Centre has
grown from strength to strength. It is the largest gymnastics club in the Auckland area
and is the almost exclusive provider of gymnastics services on the North Shore.
A satellite centre was set-up at the
Hibiscus Coast in September
2004. The Centre is run by a
board, assisted by parent support
committees for both rhythmic and artistic and full time coaching
staff who look after the Men's and
Women's
competitive, Gymnastics For All and
schools programmes.
Our
Roll
of Honour is a recognition of our
Presidents, Life Members and Representative Gymnasts. It is
indicative of the quality of our gymnasts that we have to
restrict the list to only those that have represented NZ at either
World Championships, Commonwealth Games or Olympics. There have
been many more who have been to other overseas venues wearing New
Zealand Colours.
