Coaches Becoming an event specialist

[emilykatherine]

I was wondering how you can become an event specialist without going to level 8 can you petition to become one or can you test out of level 8 by just doing 2 event or will you have to do all of them? Thanks in advance

Per USAG rules and policies, you can start as an "event specialist" in as low as level 7. You must score at least 8.5 on your event(s) to progress to the next level.
