Venue Due to the large size of the venue and the time of year we wish advise everyone to come prepared in case we have a cold snap and the venue is not as warm as we would like. We have looked into measures of heating the venue, however we have been advised that there is no possible way to introduce additional heating to a venue of this scale. For the safety of all our athletes we encourage the use of thermals under tracksuits. Tracksuits/ smart additional clothing can be utalised to keep gymnasts warm. The only times that athletes are expected to not wear their tracksuits is competing and warming up on the equipment (with the exception of floor if necessary) and ultimately it is the responsibility of athletes and their coaches to monitor their warmth. Number of coaches on the floor WAG/ MAG - Two provincial coaches per team. TRA - One Provincial Coach per 6 athletes competing. AER/RG events only one provincial coach per level. More information will be provided in the code manuals and work plans
