In TN USAG, does anyone know the exact numbers needed for states? Well, I want to know the AA needed in one sanctioned meet for level 8 and level 7. Our coaches seem to tell us different things or just put us off by saying "she" (gymnast) will be fine or will have her scores by states. Also does anyone know how regionals, for level 8 works? Thanks.

from the TNUSAG website:

AA score for level 7 & 8 is AA 30.00, for level 9 & 10 it is AA 32.00

My dd's coach says that when they determine who goes to regionals it is a percentage of the girls who make a 34AA and above.

For level 8 regionals, I believe they take a certain percentage. For 9 and 10 you must score a 34 at states to go on to regionals.

Wow they only require a 30.00 to go to state. In Illinois for level 7 its a 34.5 and for Level 8 its 33.0 Wish Illinois only required a 30.00. I have 3 girls who are oh so close and just won't be able to reach that 34.5 in time.

I guess I should clarify that the scores i listed were for Pennsylvania (at least that's how it was about 4 years ago).

I think the All Around Qualification Score depends on how many Level 8,9 and 10's a State has.Therefore a State that does not have very many Level 8,9 and 10's has a lower requirement score to qualify for State.

:confused: does this mean the qualifying AA in your State could change year to year?

In NJ to qualify for States, it is 32.00 for Levels 4-8, also for L9 (I think), I'm not sure about Level 10. It is in the USAGNJ handbook.

Yes, states do raise or lower qualifying scores to state depending on numbers of girls qualifying over the past few years. Occasionally, the score for a level may be lowered during the actual meet season if not many are hitting it. I know we have a few parents here from MN and they raised the L7 score this year to 35 and may have to lower it since quite a few kids are having trouble getting it.

In CO, the current qualifying scores are 33AA for L4-7 and 32AA for 8-10.
