Jen updated the article... thank you!I did notice that the article had an OLD Xcel mobility chart, so I am including the more updated one.
I hope your DD enjoys her Xcel journey! In addition to gymnast's goals, coaching plays a big part in which programs to choose. My DD's gym has both Xcel and "JO". Xcel replaces the compulsory levels (Xcel tops out at Platinum there). Our gymnasts are competitive in both tracks, but probably moreso at the Xcel level (since there are more levels and therefore more gymnasts, and Optionals is very tough!). We have at least one L10 that I know of who is a rising senior with college aspirations. Our gym has a really good vibe between the coaches and gymnasts (and parents - mostly).My daughter started w/ the JO program. She had a friend on the team and we didn't know much about Xcel. Over the years, she wanted a more competitive track and it was the right place for her for a long time. She did pre-team/L2/L4/L5/L7/L8/L8/L9.
This last month she made the decision to switch to Xcel. It makes me sad because I believe that the primary driver for the switch was a coach. But, I'm proud of my daughter for owning the decision and its fun watching her try new things (i.e. field hockey) as she gets ready to start HS next year. It's great that she'll be able to do both the HS field hockey team and continue to compete through Xcel. She had her first Xcel practice yesterday and was really happy, which was great to see.
