BCRSGF is now on Facebook

With the change in technology and behaviour, BCRSGF is planning to revamp their website. Furthermore, to leverage off the power of social media, BCRSGF now have an official Facebook page with these goals in mind:

  • raise awareness of the sport,
  • raise awareness of recreation, AGG, men's rhythmic gymnastics, Special O and other non-Olympic programs of rhythmic gymnastics,
  • keep members aware of BCRSGF's activities, resources and events,
  • support development of the sport,
  • create a RG community that bridges some of our current athletes and coaches to past athletes and coaches.

Do check out what is on there already. The link for the facebook page is:
http://www.facebook.com/Rhythmicsbc

We encourage all members to 'like' the page so that you are up-to-date on where there will be postings of videos, news and photos of our sport. Furthermore, to encourage clubs to have their own facebook page. Starting mid-November, we will do a link-back to all member clubs' facebook page that do a 'like' to the BCRSGF facebook page.

Again, we have so much potential if we all work together as a community! We need you to help get us to the next level!
