My DS had a trial session at a gym club, mixed bag sort of club recently.
It's in a council run, leisure centre.
It's also registered with BG. The hall is split into two with a curtain, suspended from the ceiling, partioning off half of the hall, the other half is used for tennis and/or badminton.
The gym part has three or so activities going on, including three or four trampolines. The parents and theirs and the children's belongings, sit scattered around the edge of the hall, a metre or two away from the children participating, as there are only two narrow wooden benches for seating.
Also, the people from the tennis courts, I don't know if they have their own exit, but more frequently they just walk around the curtain and through the gym whilst training is going on. One boisterous group of older men walked through with their raquets and one of them walked the length of the low beam, unchallenged by coaches.
Also, there was no warming up. Just straight into forward rolls, jumping and vaulting. And one particular group their was no age division, just 3-10 year old children together.
It seems to be run by one man, who I think is struggling, judging by complaints about lack of communication on the Facebook page. I did contact about some of the above but received no reply.
I'm just wondering if I'm being harsh, or if any of the above is cause for concern? Or if I need to report this, and who would be the best person to contact?
