TEAM DESCRIPTIONS

Levels 1-3 (Pre-Team): are non competitive levels which center around the basic skills for all four Olympic events.

Levels 4, 5, 6:  Compulsory level.  USAG pre-choreographed routines and series of skills that each competitor must perform.  This level competes up to the State Championships.

Level 7:  This is considered the first step in optional competition. Optional routines are performed with some required skills.  At Champion, girls choose music suitable to their personality.  A choreographer will develop a routine with the gymnast and will be scheduled outside of practice time.  This level competes up to the State Championships

Level 8:  Optional Competition continues at this level adding more difficult skills and requirements as produced by the USAG.  This level competes in States as well as the Regional Championships.  Qualification to Regionals is determined by the USAG board.  The number of gymnast who qualify changes every year.

Level 9:  The next level of optional competition.  Its difficulty requirements and expectations are harder than that of level 8.  These girls have the opportunity to qualify for State, Regional and National competitions.  At Regionals a percentage of each age group will advance to Nationals.  The percentage is determined by the number of gymnasts in each age group from all the regions in the US.

Level 10:  This is the highest level in the USAG Junior Olympic program.  These girls have the opportunity to qualify for State, Regionals, and Nationals.  Athletes who place high enough in the all-around at Nationals will be considered Junior Olympic National Team members.  At Regionals the top 7 athletes in each age group advance to Nationals.
