The European Gymnastics Technical Committee for Acrobatic Gymnastics (TC-ACRO) has the great pleasure to invite interested coaches and athletes of all levels from the European Gymnastics Member Federations to participate in a training camp.
In parallel to the training camp, workshops for coaches will be organised.

In that case, they will be contacted directly for confirmation after the deadline of the registrations, June 18th, 2025.
