Avondale Gymnastics Club - Surbiton

About Us

Club History

Avondale Gymnastics Club has been proud to be part of the Royal Borough of Kingston since it's formation in 1947. The Club started from it's humble beginnings in Grand Avenue, Berrylands to it's home for over 25 years in Fleetwood School. As the number of members grew, so did Avondale and it operated five nights a week from the school hall. During this time there were many success including the boys team being the National Association of Boys Clubs Champions for 5 successive years.

In 1978, Avondale moved to the newly built Centre for a short (caretaker) stay until the Borough moved the Club into (sadly) smaller premises at the King Charles Centre. With the cramped conditions numbers fell, but not giving up, Avondale kept trying for a new purpose built building only for gymnasts.

In 1986 with the help of the Borough, Faircloughs and a large amount of money raised by the Club over many years, Avondale finally got its new home, a new purpose built gymnasium in Hollyfield Road, Surbiton (our present facility).
