Club manager Demian Coates said it was a great milestone for Armidale.
“That has never been done in Armidale PCYC history,” Mr Coates said.
“We try to have all our clubs at least 60 per cent youth members, which is individuals 24 or under ... we’re at 66.6 per cent so that’s quite good.”
Mr Coates puts the boost in numbers to increased efforts to build a great presence in the community.
“We have an amazing KidzCare group, which is after school care, and vacation care so that’s doing very well,” he said.
Mr Coates said the club was “more than just a gym”, offering seven different martial arts classes, fives types of dance and a host of other activities.
