It was back in 2016 when the RGA moved into its new home located at 7400 River Road (across from the UBC Boathouse) after being based at the old Sportstown complex for many years.
RGA is a non-profit association incorporated under the BC Societies Act. Over the last 48 years, RGA has continued to develop and provide the city of Richmond quality gymnastics programs for children and adults of all ages. RGA is also a member of Gymnastics BC.
