PBG is following Philadelphia guidelines regarding safety measures. All entering students, parents and coaches wear a mask, use hand sanitizer and maintain social distancing in class and while seated. Families are asked to limit the number of family members accompanying students to one when practical.
Equipment is sanitized on a regular basis. Philadelphia is requiring masks to be worn in setting such as ours. Since most of our students are too young to be vaccinated yet, we require mask wearing whenever possible in our facility, and ask parents to do the same and be sure their child has a mask when coming in for class.

About
Report
Philadelphia Boys' Gymnastics began as Temple University Boys' Gymnastics Team (TUBGT) in the fall of 2003 when two nearby boys' team programs were terminated and the gym at Temple became available for evening activity. That first year was also the start of the Temple Boys' Invitational, which later became the Philadelphia Boys' Invitational.
