Tharla seo mar gheall ar an comhoibriu nuálach le Ionad Naomh Padraig, Dobhar agus Donegal Sports Partnership chun gleacaíocht a thabhairt go dtí an cheantar Gaeltachta.

I cónasc l’ Ionad Naomh Padraig, chuir muid traenáil ar fáil do coitsealaí atá cainteoiri Gaeílge dúchasach, d’eagraigh muid cailíochtai proifisiúnta agus thug muid tacaíocht don ionad ag oscailt an dara suíomh faoi bhun ainm Citadel.

Due to a great demand in the Gaeltacht region, we held our first gymnastics class in Gweedore in July 2019. Since opening, the classes have been extremely popular with varying age groups.

This has been a ground-breaking collaboration with Ionad Naomh Padraig, Dobhar and Donegal Sports Partnership, to bring gymnastics to the Gaeltacht region.

In conjunction with Ionad Naomh Padraig, we facilitated the training of native Irish-speaking coaches, organised professional qualifications and supported the centre in opening a second location under the Citadel banner.

Our fully-qualified Citadel coaches now run recreational classes one day a week in Ionad Naomh Padraig for children aged 3-13. Gymnasts are introduced to floor, vault, beam and uneven bars skills, in a comfortable, beginner-friendly environment. This gives the children a solid grounding in gymnastics fundamentals and a well-rounded introduction to our wonderful sport.
