My daughter told me that her long-term goal was to get to Level 10. I hope that that means college, too, but she sets her own goals and she is only seven years old. Her coaches indicated pretty enthusiastically that they think she can get there. Then I thought of ChalkBucket and all of the...
How do you know that your kid should take a shot at elite? At what age/level do you need to make the decision? What size training group is best for elite training? What does elite do for your chances of a college scholarship vs spending several years at Level 10? What hours are elites...
I don't really know much about gymnastics, and I feel clueless all of the time. My kid really likes it though. They coaches tell me she's good. My kid also tells me she wants to be the best gymnast one day. She says that a lot, and has been saying it for a couple of years. She's also 7 and...

I need a little help with a scoring deduction for level 10 Bars. My dd had a good bar routine this weekend and got a 9.150. Her coach thought it was a little low and asked the judge. She said she took .3 off for a rhythm deduction because she swings too slow. My dd has been an optional for 8...
I have been looking at results that have started coming in and the bars scores seem really low....Is there some changes in scoring that are having this effect? My dd first meet is next weekend and I would love a heads up!
L10 Floor Scoring Question
How would this routine score? [A numerical estimate is kind of what I’m looking for and also if you want to give a little breakdown on where the huge composition deductions and the execution/artistry that are probably inherent because of how the routine is put...
Unless some unexpected thing happens it looks like I will be competing level 10 on trampoline this year. I am very stoked! Our gym hasn't had anyone at this level in years. I would like to know what kind of neat things you get to do once you reach this level. I know a couple are competing in...
We have had some threads in the forum discussing the differences in USAG J.O. Level 10 gymnastics and Elite Gymnastics. I thought it would be good to start a thread where we can compare the two with video examples. If there is a story behind your videos...please share. I'll start with a...
If a gymnast is at a gym that caps at Level 10 and/or does not do elite, and this gymnast decides she wants to go elite (and of course this decision is supported by her ability and desire), would she be at a disadvantage compared to those coming from elite facilities? Is there a big difference...
There is a rumor going around our gym that they plan to reduce start value of the level 10 routines to a 9.3. Has anyone read anything about this? I am sure it would be easy enough to get on beam and floor but bars already seems tough to get. How would that work with Vault....whoa maybe I am...
Does anyone remember if the Level 10 and Elite compulsories were the same in or around the cycle that ended in 1996? I was a Level 9 at that time and was just curious. If they were different what skills were in the Level 10 Bars routine and what was the compulsory vault for Level 10?
Thanks...

I was wondering if anyone could tell me the JO value(letter) for a straddle jump 1/2, 3/4 and full on the beam for L10. All of these would be starting facing the end of the beam.
Thanks.
I was wondering if anyone happened to any videos of this years level 10 champion (Kayla Williams). She goes to a gym near me and I can't seem to find hardly any video from nationals. Any links would be appreciated.
We're really proud that one of our gymnasts we've known for a long time won the Region 5, Level 10 All-Around Champion title this afternoon.
Jackie Bruce scored 1st in vault (she has an unbelievable vault), and 1st in floor (using our music, of course - Tribal Dreams).
Jackie has...
