Summer 2023 GymBC Weekly Schedule

As we head into the summer months, the GymBC Weekly will be issued every second week. The next issue of the GymBC Weekly will be on June 22, 2023.  

A reminder that you can access archived Weekly's on our website, here. 

Positive Space in Sport - Pride Month

Embracing the strength of diversity, this Pride Month, GymBC stands proud in support of our 2SLGBTQI+ community. Together, we can celebrate the power of inclusivity. Some wonderful resources from viaSport can be found here. 

GymBC Old Course Registration Platform (For Courses Prior to September 2022)

Prior to GymBC’s use of Activity Messenger for our online calendar and event registrations in 2022 (i.e. coaching and judging course registrations etc.) we had a different calendar and online registration system, available here. Effective July 1, 2023, the old GymBC registration system will be decommissioned.

If there are any old course receipts that you would like to keep a record of, please login to retrieve them no later than June 30th as access will be unavailable after that time.

If you have any outstanding refunds, credits, or inconsistencies in the NCCP Locker, for courses that took place prior to September 2022, please contact coaching@gymbc.org. After June 30th, we will be much more limited in our ability to assist you.
