GENERAL INFORMATION
By Head Coach & Program Director - Douglas Pershun
- Thank you for taking an interest in our 33rd Annual Team Clinic. We welcome you to take part in our funtastic clinic. Each year, we take pride in providing a really positive & exciting camp experience for all competitive gymnasts.
We are NOT one of the giant Gymnastics Summer Glamour Camps that you send your kids away to. We don't even try to compete with the Multi-Million Dollar Summer Camps and all of the gymnastics toys they can provide. We do not have nor offer Horse Back Riding, Face Painting, Bungee Tramps, nor Rock Climbing. We also do not bring celebrity athletes or coaches in to get your pictures taken with.
What we have to offer is a real gymnastics working clinic. Our Team Coaches & Camp Staff are full time gymnastics professionals, not college kids trying to pay for camp tuition. Their lives and livelihoods revolve around the sport of gymnastics. We are truly seeking to improve gymnasts and gymnastics in our area.
Our camp is about instilling good work habits, technique, and developing new skills. Sharing ideas and experiences with like-minded athletes and coaches. We are a "Work Horse" Camp!
As a "Work Horse" camp, we are interested in providing a fun, positive, educationally valuable experience. We will send the gymnasts home tired & sore each day, but happy that they moved closer to their goals. At camp, they will work hard and they will develop their skill. They will make new friends, share ideas, and generally come back with renewed motivation and learning tools. We know this from the area gymnasts and parents that return year after year.
One of the most rewarding and interesting phenomena about the camp is the last 2 hours of the week. The last 2 hours of the Team Clinic, we have a little gymnastics version of Show & Tell. We invite all of the parents in and each of the gymnasts show off their newly acquired skills. Even after coaching 35+ years, I still get a thrill by watching the upcoming athletes perform their new skills. The greatest coaching satisfaction lies in this area.
We hope you will make plans to attend our clinic this year & hope to see you soon!

Online Registration
All Registration is online through our Jackrabbit Gym Management Software (easy & secure). Click the following link (or Picture) to register for the Camp.
Housing Available
We get visiting Gymnasts from numerous gymnasts for our Camp. We offer Gymnast Housing - from our Competitive Gymnasts Host Families. Essentially, we look at the age & level of the visiting gymnast and match them with a Host Family from our Team. Essentially they adopt your child for the week and pack their lunch and get them to and from the gym, feed them dinner.... We only ask that you offer the host family a minimum of $50.00 for the additional expense - food, towels, gas....
If your gymnast needs housing - click the following link to our email and we will put you in touch with one of our Host Families. Staff@eriegymnastics.com
