I'm just curious for more information on the level 6 beam and floor requirements.
For beam, what are the requirements in general, as well as what are the 'skills' you can do? Such as, what are the options other than back walkovers and back handsprings?
For Floor, just what are the requirements...
Hello! My son turns 8 on September 2nd.....his coach is considering having him evaluated in the fall for the Future Stars? I tried to look at it to get more information, and it states the age groups begin at age 8-9 for regionals, etc. For our USAG meets last year, he was not allowed to...
Can elements from special requirements be counted toward value parts to routines? I am confused and apologize for my lack of knowledge here. I've been teaching at a gym that hasn't competed usag in 6 years...we typically just do compulsories, but my current group of 8-10 year olds could easily...
Could someone give me a general explanation of the requirements for the "new" level 8? I've seen the links to the requirements but they tend to confuse me a little. And if there's anything else I should know about it, feel free to add it.
Hi, my 7yo DD has just been invited to join the team, and we were informed that membership in the booster club is required with a minimum 30 hr volunteer requirement. Is this the average? Just want to know what we are getting into and if I can make it work with all our other obligations. Thanks!
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...
Coaches & Judges: I know L8 requires 4A and 4B skills. Does the following routine meet that?
Kip cast (45 degrees), Clear hip Handstand- 1/2 piroutte, squat on- jump to high bar, cast HS, Giant, Giant, layout flyaway.
Thanks!
Anyone know, or know where I can find the level 7 requirements on each event.
Like how many A skills, etc.. Do you need a series on beam? That kind of thing.
Thanks!
I don't think it is an exact comparison the level 7, so I am not sure what is going to be required for the new level 6. Does anyone know or have a link to the USAG website where it is listed? Thanks!
Does anyone know how you have to place at regionals to advance on to level 9 eastern nationals? I think it is top six all around but do top event girls go as well?
My DD came home from gym telling me that beginning in January that all the gyms were going to be changing the bar settings due to new rules. She uses a larger bar setting than what the requirement is going to be and is freaking out about not being able to do her giants on the smaller setting...
Does a Front Tuck step out, front handspring fill the requirements for the front tumbling pass for Level 7 Floor? My daughter can do this but cannot get enough rebound to execute the front handspring, front tuck pass. Her coaches won't let her do the first; its this or nothing. They say if she...
Hi, I am new to Chalk Bucket! I was wondering if anyone out there has had any issue with the new minimum age requirement for each level for men's competition? My 7 year-old competed last year at level 4 and moved up to level 5...however the minimum age now is 7 for level 5.....my son turned 7...
I'm in Xcel Gold and I was looking at the requirements for our floor routines. Our coach told us that it would be fine to have our first tumbling pass as a robhs and the second a front hs. The requirement says "1. 1 acro connection min two flight elements." Wouldn't that mean robhsbhs or robhs...
What are the scoring requirements for being a L9 event specialist for state, regional and nationals?
I found on one site it is 9.5 for regionals in Region 8 but on another site for Region 4 it is a 9.0. I would think all regions would be the same.
What are the values of the required difficulty elements in level 7-10 routines? For example, if a level 7 is short an A, how much does she lose for it?
I was just wondering what all the requirements were for level 9 on each event and what were some examples for each skill. i was also wondering what bonus you could get on each event. i want to get a SV of 10.0 on each event.
Thanks!!
