What do our coaches say about Gymnathlon?
Neville Mercieca
"Coaching at Gymnathlon has given me a wealth of diverse experiences. Working with children can sometimes be challenging, but thanks to the well-prepared methodology, clear system, and strong support, I feel confident preparing sessions that deliver the best possible experience for the children. On a personal level, it’s deeply fulfilling to bring joy to children through sport and to nurture the potential of future little Olympians. These aspects, and many more, have helped me grow as a coach and continue developing both professionally and personally."
Kersty Fenech
"I chose to coach young children because their boundless energy and enthusiasm make every session incredibly rewarding. Watching them grow—not only physically, but also in confidence and character—gives me a deep sense of purpose. Every smile, every moment of excitement, and every small achievement reminds me why I love what I do. It’s a privilege to guide them on their journey, helping them develop skills, self-belief, and a genuine love for movement. Knowing that I’m not only teaching sport, but also helping shape values they will carry with them throughout life, makes it even more meaningful."
