Home Meets

Home Meets are an important part of the Tumbling Tigers gymnastics program. We host 2-3 home meets a year.
 
Volunteer Jobs During Home Meets
Each family is required to sign up to help run the food table, score table or other jobs in the gym such as set up, beam timer, warm up timers, score flashing, clean up, etc. These jobs are extremely important to helping a meet run smoothly and on time. Families are encouraged to sign up to help during a session their gymnast is NOT competing in to allow ALL team families to sit and relax and watch their gymnasts compete.  Sign ups for the volunteer jobs are sent electronically prior to the meet.
