Eastern Canadian Gymnastics Championships, May 8-9, Moncton, New Brunswick, 2015 A total of 18 female gymnasts along with 2 coaches and one judge attended the Eastern Canadian Gymnastic Championships held in Moncton New Brunswick. The competition itself went very well with Ontario and Quebec running away with most of the awards.
Best PEI results was Saven McHatten came home with an 8th place ribbons on the floor in the Tyro 8 category.
Due to the schedule and the close location of this year’s championship only a few stayed for the banquet (Saultos) and very few attended team training.

Executive Director Report
The past year has been a successful year for Gymnastics PEI.
Both the women’s and the men’s technical committees were very busy this year, completing
training camps and skills clinics and competing in meets. Both programs continue to build their
capacity with coaching and judging educations sessions.
All clubs continue to be proactive in keeping their coaches trained and professional.
The working group tasked with revising the organization’s Policies and Procedures continued to
meet this season. However, some timing issues have delayed the project and it is still a work in
progress at this time.
We have seen an increase in membership again this year, with all clubs adding new participants.
Between competitive, recreational, tiny tots, camps, and birthdays, the options to participate in
gymnastics are abundant in all areas of PEI. Our preschool programs continue to set the highest
standard for Active Start programming.
This year GPEI sent teams to Atlantics, Easterns, and Canadians bringing home many medals. At
Atlantics PEI athletes brought home 4 all-around titles and team gold medals in Argo 6 and Level
3 under 13. Easterns proved a little tougher with 32 athletes attending. Four athletes on the
men’s side attended Canadians with Matt Gallant bringing home a silver medal in pommels in
the National Open division, a first for Prince Edward Island.
The Canada Games Advisory Committee continued to meet and the process continues to ensure
a fair selection for the teams. Both the men’s and women’s teams were selected in late fall with
full teams for both. Competition proved to be both again at the Canada Games but both team
represented PEI well with Matt Gallant making the apparatus finals on the pommel horse.
I would like to thank the GPEI board for
their continued dedication to promoting
gymnastic excellent across PEI.

Summerside Saultos Gymnastics
Annual Report
Registration: Registration has been great for the 2015-2016 season. Almost every class in our
recreation program is full and we have had to add extra classes for certain age categories to keep up
with demand. To go with our recreation program we have added extra competitive athletes bringing us
to over 50 athletes in the competitive program. We project to be close to 300 athletes for the first term.
Staff: Our staff remains the same as last year with some part time coaches taking on larger roles in our
competitive program. Our older athletes are taking more classes in our recreation program which is
great and is helping us develop our future competitive coaches.
Fundraising: We have started our chocolate bar sale for this year. We have 200 boxes to sell which will
net us a profit of $11,000 when complete. This will be our biggest fundraiser of the year with provincials
and gym show being the other two.
Facility: Our facility will remain at Slemon Park
for the imminent future but we are currently
exploring other possible options closer to town
and with the possibility of building an in ground
pit.

Island Gymnastics Academy
Annual Report
The Island Gymnastics Academy enjoyed a very busy season this past year. Coming off of our
award for top club in Canada, we continued to pursue excellence in organization, development,
and delivery of gymnastics.
Competitions
The highlight of the year was the Canada Winter Games in Prince George, BC. The Academy again
hosted the Harvest Classic, in November with over 120 gymnasts from four PEI clubs in
attendance. The Prince Edward Classic
was held in January 2015. Over 400
gymnasts from Newfoundland, Nova
Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince
Edward Island participated. This
continues to be one the highest
attended competition east of Montreal.
We enjoyed attending the provincial
championships hosted by Summerside
Saultos. It was great to see both female
and male disciplines compete together
in such a great, central location.
The Academy girls competed in several invitational competitions last year including – Harvest
Classic, Prince Edward Classic, Titans, Amherst in Nova Scotia, Gymnix in Montreal and the
highlight was Tampa Bay. The girls competed in the high profile Gasparilla Classic on Tropicana
field. They also participated in a several training camps.
The Academy boys competed in several invitational competitions, including, Harvest Classic,
Prince Edward Classic, Titans and Alta in Nova Scotia, Elite Canada and National Championships.
Several training camps were held.
Participation in the International Competitions and the Provincials, Atlantics, Elite Canada and
Nationals was a highlight of our competitive season for the boys and girls.
After several years of discussion, the Academy has decided to withdraw from competing at the
Eastern Canadian Championships. The Board of Directors look to other invitational competitions
to provide the athletes with a more positive experience. It has been determined that the financial
cost to attend Easterns does not meet our expected outcome.
Staff
We offer programs from pre-school to adult gymnastics. We have eight full time coaches
directing the programs. We also have 21 other coaches who work in the programs. We are
pleased to have hired one more full time coaches who will assist in our delivery of programs
starting in September. Janet Duval, an Island native, has been furthering her education and
coaching off Island for the past several years. She brings a vast experience to the club as well as
national judging status.
Professional development continues as a high priority with C.J. Keliher completing his Level 4
NCCP. We also continue with our yearly first aid training. This summer our coaches had the
ultimate experience of attending and coaching with Kelly Manjak (coach of Kyle Shewfelt).
Coaches reported that this was hands down the best coaching education they had ever received.
Lloyd Mallard, an expert in children’s learning styles, also provided an outstanding clinic to our
competitive coaches. Our recreation and preschool program directors continue to deliver in
house training for our recreation coaches.
In total we have found NCCP Level 3 coaches and two NCCP Level 4 coaches. All of our competitive
coaches have NCCP training at various levels.
Athlete Development
The Academy coaches closely monitor the delivery of the programs.
The girls program continues to grow. The success at the competitive level last year is a tribute to
the quality of the whole program offered to our
gymnasts. International travel has become a part of the
regular yearly program.
The boys are developing a very strong “mini tumbler”
program. They continue to pursue International travel
with a team competing in the US.
Recreation Gymnastics
The Academy is pleased to see these programs grow.
We are always adapting the delivery of programs to
meet the needs of our clients. We have children from
age 1 to adults who enjoy the fun, fitness and
fundamentals delivered in our recreation classes. Our
satellite program in Montague continues to bring
positive feedback. We are excited to have such a great
relationship with Montague Consolitated School. Our adult gymnastics program offers a great
experience and work out for our adult members. They were a welcomed addition to Gymstrada.
Facility
Being part of the House of Sport is extremely positive for the Academy. Sharing resources and
overall facility with several sports has many benefits. The current space the Academy has is small,
but is utilized fully. The use of the South Gym continues to grow. We could certainly use more
space!!!
Equipment
This new equipment undertaking by the Academy has proven very positive. With the upgrade of
our equipment, we see great results from the improvement.
Anniversary
The Island Gymnastics Academy opened its doors in September of 1981. We are celebrating our
34th year of Incorporation. We have over 1000 gymnasts registered with Gymnastics PEI.
Scott Chandler Retirement Event with Ellie Black in the spotlight
In June, Scott Chandler retired from gymnastics at the age of 40. The retirement event saw past
PEI National Stream Gymnasts attend. Dave and Crystal Kikuchi, pas Olympians Evan Cruz,
Vaughn Arthur- NS National Stream athletes attended. The event was graced with two Pan
American Games Canadian athletes, Hugh Smith and Ellie Black. Overall, the event was a great
way for Scott to retire from the sport and an excellent opportunity to promote gymnastics on
PEI.
Closing
We would like to thank Gymnastics PEI for partnering on several significant projects that
encourage the development and growth of gymnastics on PEI. We acknowledge the great
support from the Provincial Government. The continued funding through the TD program has
already seen positive results in performance and expansion of programs on PEI. We look forward
to working with the new TD under their new portfolio.
We would like to thank the parents for their tremendous support this year. Hosting the Harvest
Classic and Prince Edward Classic cannot be successfully undertaken without your support. Thank
you to the Staff….your continued dedication to the children of the Island Gymnastics Academy is
outstanding.
Thank you to the Board of Directors who work extremely well together and oversee the policy
and procedures of the Academy.

St. Louis Gymnos Club
Annual Report
The St. Louis Gymnos enjoyed a very successful season this past year.
We had a big increase in our club registration reaching a total of 118 members. This is the biggest increase in the last ten year.
We had five very successful fundraisers raising money to purchase many new pieces of equipment, repairing some older mats and other pieces of training equipments. This project was well over $ 5,000.00 In our competitive program, our gymnasts compete in 5 different competitions across the Atlantics provinces. They competed mostly in the Junior Olympic Program level three and six. It was a learning experience for our coaches and gymnasts. We had a total of 10 competitive gymnasts compete at the 2015 Provincial Gymnastics
Championships hosted in Summerside. For many of our younger gymnasts it was their first
provincial championship. Tori Hogan in Open 6 won the All Around title while winning first on
Vault, Balance Beam and Floor. Hayden Chaisson in Novice 6 finished 4th All Around while
winning 3rd on floor and 4th on vault.
Tori Hogan and Hayden Chaisson also participated at the 2015 Atlantic Championship hosted in
St. John New Brunswick. Both gymnasts enjoyed their experience and achieved personnel best.
Tory Hogan won first All Around honors in the Open 6 category. She also placed 2nd on Vault, on
5th on Bars, 6th on Beam and 4th on Floor. Hayden Chaisson also did very well in the Novice 6
category. She finished 5th All Around and placed 6thon Vault, 7th on Bars and 4th on Floor.
Our head coach Paul was also very pleased to coach two sessions at Atlantic Championships. He
was very great full for the opportunity to help all the athletes in his rotations.
We started a new younger pre competitive group on Fridays with 8 young female gymnasts.
Working with Megan Gallant one extra practice every week proved to be very rewarding. This is
something that we plan to do again this year with a new group.
Meagan Gallant had a chance to use her judging skills at many competitions this past season. She also had the privilege to judge at the Atlantic Championships in St. John, New Brunswick. Meagan also won the ADL Official of the Year. She is a very dedicated coach and judge. Congratulation to Pam Hogan and Mackenzie Oliver for winning the Gymnastics PEI Club volunteer and Gymnastics PEI Club coach awards respectfully. We are also very proud of our own Ellen McAssey for doing a great job presenting all of GPEI awards at our GPEI awards night. Our annual parent day was again well attended by all our members with one extra group to perform. We also do our annual awards and certificates afterward. Our annual Summer Camp was a great success again this year. Our camp was full and we had to turn away some gymnasts. Space is an issue in our gym. We anticipate having a bigger registration next year as we try adding one more recreational group on Saturday. Space might be a challenge. We are looking forward to a very exciting 2015-16 season. We would like to thank GPEI board and all the board members for all your support during the year. Submitted by

Annual Report
We had a very successful year. We are heading into year 6 of operation and our recreation and competitive programs continue to grow. A tremendous amount of positive feedback has been sent to us by our members. We have outgrown our training facility and are currently looking at options to expand our existing space. We purchased $15,000 worth of the equipment after Easterns including: landing mats, crash mats, a single training bar, training aids and a vault runway. We had 6 provincial champions this year with 11 athletes qualifying for atlantics as well as 5 for easterns.
As of August 2015 Victory Gymnastics is a competitive club only, we no longer offer recreational classes. Instead we now share our facility with A-1 Gymnastics (recreation) and Passion Elite (cheerleading)
