    Parents Puma Jr is USAIGC NY State Bar Champ (again!)

    So proud of this kid...what an awesome weekend! She got her highest AA ever, good enough for third place of 20 AND her 9.6 first place Bronze bars was a personal best. She also scored her highest on Silver bars, 9.35, which was only beat by a 9.4. I thought for second she had State bar champ x2...

    Parents USAIGC vs. USAG

    I am new to the CB site and to gymnastics as a parent. My daughter is 8-years old and a very committed USAIGC team member in NYC. I know it's early to talk about this, because of her age, but she has expressed a desire to go all the way with her beloved sport - to college team or to major...

    WAG Question for a USAIGC judge?

    I know most people are not super familiar with USAIGC, but if there is a judge who could answer a question I'd be most appreciative! I'm just trying to understand the scoring a little better. Thanks! :)

    Parents Puma Jr makes bars event finals for USAIGC Worlds!!!

    Thank you to all who have asked and sent well wishes! It wasn't a great meet overall, but nothing tragic, nothing below 8 and AA above 34, so it could have been worse. But she did place 3rd of 44 (yes FORTY FOUR kids in the age group...) so she made event finals for bars! She was disappointed...

    WAG Puma Jr wins bars at USAIGC States!!!!

    Ok, full disclosure first...yes USAIGC Bronze is easier than L5 and yes the talent pool is much, much less deep, but I'm still so excited for her!!! This has been such a great move for her. Even though she's not on a "fancy" path, she's enjoying gymnastics, improving and feeling good about...

    WAG Moving from USAIGC to USAG

    My daughter is ten. She has done gymnastics in USAIGC for five years. She has some very big tricks but is missing the finishing she needs. She has found a new gym and has hit it off with her soon to be new coach. My question is does anyone have any experience with the testing out process...

    WAG "B1" vs "B2" in a USAIGC meet???

    So I know there's not too many people with USAIGC experience, but would anyone happen to know the difference? These are the scores from a meet last year and it has Bronze in three separate divisions: BD (Bronze Diamond, I know what that is) but also "B1" and "B2"?? The scores are higher in B1...

    Parents xcel vs usaigc - what's the difference?

    Some gyms have one, and some have the other, but are they basically equivalent? Is the judging similar? One thing I notice is that there seem to be more low scores in igc competitions that there are in xcel. I've looked at the scores for a few competitions, and I noticed that all the teams...

    Parents 4th place AA for Puma Jr's first USAIGC meet!

    Ok, full disclosure before I continue....Yes. Yes, USAIGC Bronze is significantly easier than JO L5. Lol. BUT...I'm still super proud of this kid! She also got 6th on vault and 2nd on both floor and beam! The first time she's ever gotten two 9s! Beam was not her best. A couple uncharacteristic...

    WAG A new chapter in the journey of Puma Jr:USAIGC

    As many of you know, Puma Jr has been struggling. She has improved so much, but she's been really down on herself and we've decided to step away from JO at least for now. Unfortunately, this means another gym change and I'm incredibly sad to be leaving her gym. But the only other option for her...

    Parents Chances of going to USAIGC regionals

    So, this is the first year for our 10yo daughter on team. She's been doing gymnastics since age 8 and definitely has the strength and ability for it. We put off joining team sooner because of the time commitment and because she was enjoying doing gymnastics recreationally. But it just got to...

    Parents Moving from USAG optional levels to USAIGC

    Has anyone ever had experience moving from USAG Lev 7+ to USAIGC? My daughter has had a back injury in the past and I'm considering the option to move her to USAIGC (gold?) so she trains less hours a week. Training Lev 8 Yurchenchos BHS BHS etc 20 hours a week in the summer just seems to be too...

    USAIGC Copper meets - what to expect?

    I am a USAIGC Copper gymnast and my first meet/season is rapidly approaching! I am pretty nervous, as I have never competed before and don't know what to expect. If anyone has competed USAIGC Copper here, can you tell me what IGC meets are usually like? Deductions for appearance of gymnast (like...

    WAG Question for judges re: USAIGC floor routines

    I was hoping to get some opinions from judges (and coaches too) who are familiar with the requirements for USAIGC Silver level floor routines. Recently, my daughter was given a new Silver floor routine. She’s very happy with the music and the choreography. However, I do have a question. Of...

    WAG USAIGC vs USAG?

    I have been in gymnastics for a while now, but it have never fully understood the difference between the USAG and USAIGC programs. Also, can someone in USAIGC make nationals or the Olympics? :) sorry if this is unclear.

    Parents USAIGC to USAG scared to make a change

    My daughter competed copper USAIGC this season. It's the only program offered in our gym. Lately I've been having some issues with coaching and safety at her gym. She has been struggling with learning the handspring vault and needs that for the next level. On all other equipment she is at bronze...
