Welsh Gymnastics, called Gymnasteg Cymru in Welsh, is the national governing body for gymnastics in Wales. It has overall responsibility for the administration of eight gymnastics disciplines in Wales: women's artistic, men's artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, general gymnastics, sports acrobatics, sports aerobics, trampolining and tumbling. It works through four geographical areas, north, south, east and west, which run their own area competitions and squad training. The body was founded in 1902 as the Welsh Amateur Gymnastics Association, became Welsh Gymnastics in 2004 as a company limited by guarantee, and moved to the Sport Wales National Centre at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff in 2010. It hosts the annual Welsh Gymnastics Championships.
