bronze

My 7 year old daughter is competing bronze this year. She is doing very well so far but it's very early in the season. Competitions do not start until November. My daughter is hoping that after this year she will move to silver. She has some higher skills than bronze already but they are still...

Can USAIGC bronze compete side Ariels on floor, a lot of people on the team have it including me!

Just looking into maybe doing competitions. Do the gymnasts have to start at Bronze? My daughter has only been in gymnastics for less than a year, but had several years of ballet. She can do double backhandspring on floor and working on tuck, on beam she can do backwalkover, can complete a...

My daughter is moving up to xcel bronze next year and is very close to having her back handspring. Can she compete it next year if she gets it?

Can someone tell me the basic skills that you would see gymnasts competing at Xcel Bronze and Xcel Silver? Thanks so much!

Is a handstand considered an acro element on bronze floor? Would a RO, backward roll (1st pass) and a separate handstand fulfill requirements? TIA!

Woohoo , well done fragapane , Harold, whelan .... What an exciting night !!

I was wondering what the requirements are because the other day I was asked to try out for team and I want to know what skills I should work on. Thanks!

Does anyone know the requirements? I was wondering because I was asked to try out for the bronze team the other day and I want to know what skills I should work on to male the team. Thanks.

My question is regarding the straight leg leap and dance sequence. Can I have examples of what can be performed in this sequence? The 60 degree split leap is an absolute requirement? But it states that there needs to be a minimum of 2 group 1 VP or Group 1 Bronze skills directly or...

My dd is in Bronze. We have one more meet bf states and regionals. Then next year is Silver! I've looked online and most of the time I see that once a girl is in Xcel, she is stuck there. I am very much confused. Can my dd go to jo at some point later (after platinum). I really want her to...

We recently took our little ones to an Xcel Bronze meet. We ended up with a 9.0 start value on floor. Obviously, we misunderstood something in the requirements. Our routine was: Forward roll to straddle stand Headstand Kneel-arch back Stand Leap Pivot turn Straight jump-Tuck jump...

Hi, I'm currently a coach for a prep bronze team in MA. The rules are slightly different this year, and my little ones need 5 elements instead of 4 for 2012-2013. The specific requirements are: Mount Cast, no angle requirement Circle element Value part/element Dismount Last year, their...

I am having a really hard time picturing how Xcel meets are going to go. I have about 25 Xcel kids that were already placed on team when I became the new Head Coach. Several of them I would put at a Level 1, so they are doing Bronze. How in the world do you find music and choreograph routines...

So I am new to Xcel/Prep and I was checking out the "rules" for the Xcel Bronze and have a few concerns. Before I go to DD's coach, I want to ask here to see if I am reading them correctly. On Bars: 1. One backward Circling (360 degrees) element or VP 2.Cast (hips must leave front support...

I am super excited that my gym is going to have a prep-opt team this year, and I was wondering what the requirements are for the bronze level? I was told that bronze is between levels 4-5, which is exactly where I am. I have had my kip for over a year, but am really struggling with the squat on...

Hi everyone, I am new to chalk bucket and was so happy to find a place to interact with other gym parents. I have a question about the usag levels. My daughter just finished level 4 AAU last season as state AA champ. We recently changed gyms and now she is in a USA prep silver level, which is an...
