    Parents All splits required for bronze?

    Gym started a small team this year. They weren’t highly competitive and only offer bronze. They had a pre-team, but don’t offer different levels of classes and all classes are drop in whenever so it’s not w same kids or grouped by ability. They’ve informed parents that everyone needs to tryout...

    WAG 9 year old Xcel Bronze to Silver skills

    My daughter joined an Xcel bronze team 2 years ago and competed this past year for the first time (did really well). They are wanting to keep in Xcel bronze for a third season due to her not having the skills to move to silver. The specific skills are all flexibility related - bridge kickover...

    Parents Xcel Bronze Requirements??

    My preteam gymnast is going to an open tryout for Xcel bronze at a different gym then she currently attends. This tryout consists of her attending the 3 hr Xcel bronze class and I am full of anxiety! She loves gymnastics, she has most of the Xcel skills if I'm not mistaken (except for backhip...

    Parents Xcel bronze to JO? What level?

    If your daughter did a season of Xcel bronze and then switched to JO what level did she go to? My daughter can do all the level 3 skills except for a front hip circle and round off backhandspring. She hasn't tried those skills yet. I have her going to a gym to be evaluated this week and I was...

    Coaches USAIGC Bronze beam and copper 1/2 floor

    I'm new to USAIGC. In Copper 1&2 on floor I see a SR that says Handstand Element -stretched position (min 1 sec hold). What skills would this include aside from just a handstand? Or is it meant to be just a handstand or handstand roll? Also for Bronze and Diamond beam it says isolated split...

    Parents Didn't make Bronze, so frustrated

    My 7 yr old started preteam in Aug. This was after she fell off beam and broke her elbow in May, developing a huge fear of falling. She wouldn't get on the high beam without a panic attack. I know I have parent goggles on, but she's done SO MUCH this year. Shes really been working on her form...

    Parents Xcel Bronze to Gold

    My daughter was an Xcel Bronze last year and she was winning all her competitions. This year her coach told us that she could skip Sliver and go straight to Gold since she meets all the requirements, but Gold has more training hours (the normal training hours plus one extra day with the other...

    WAG Artistry Deductions in Bronze?

    I remember that there used to not be artistry deduction in Bronze, but then I heard talk of adding one being added but didn't know if it had ever happened or was just talk.

    Parents Asked to leave Xcel bronze?

    I guess xcel isn't more intense than I thought. My daughter was put on xcel bronze in May and was just asked to leave this week, not for behavior, not for lack of working hard but because they believe she will be lacking the skills needed to compete all 4 events by January. (She can't really do...

    Parents Preteam or bronze?

    My daughter is 5, almost 6 and we tried our a few gyms since we moved. One gym says that they want her to start on their bronze team now. It is 4-5 hours per week. The other gym says they want her to do a fit kids thing until summer is over then go into their “preteam” type program. The fit...
