The Y's 11,000 st. ft gymnastics center features advanced equipment - including a foam pit, Resi Mat Systems, competition floor, Tumbl Trak, and more. The center holds youth programming and is home to the Haverford Y gymnastics team.
Our gymnastics center has Sideline Scout, which is an instant video replay training system. We have cameras and TVs positioned at each gymnastics event so athletes can watch their skills after they take a turn and make adjustments to improve performance. This unique feature of our gymnastics center gives gymnasts the ability to replay their routines in slow motion and analyze each skill frame by frame to make detailed corrections.
