Description
Tri Star Gymnastic Club was formed in 1988 and has its origins in three Central Auckland gymnastic clubs that were established in the 1950's: St Mary’s, Mt Roskill and Onehunga Gymnastic Clubs.
Part of the original complex was the American Services gym built during the Second World War and initially located in Cornwall Park.In 1965, the gym building was moved to our site, having been donated by the Mayor, Mr Keith Hay.The facility was known as the Mt Roskill Gym and Youth Centre, and was used for gymnastics, weight lifting, judo, Maori cultural groups and community house classes.
In late 1985, a proposal was put to Auckland City to construct a new building, adjacent to the existing gym. The facility was completed in 1987, and the three independent clubs merged to become Tri Star Gymnastic Club Inc. in March 1988.
