Hello! I just joined competitive gymnastics and I am excel gold.

How do you like Xcel Gold?

So just to check, when did you compete Silver to get your mobility score? And are you actually 19?

 

[Brookegymnast88]

I like Gold but am ready to move on to Platinum! So I never competed Silver actually. A person who has never competed can join bronze, silver or gold without any previous experience. No I am not 19 I am younger but not by much so I am very old for this level but Im having fun so that's what matters!

Lying about your age is against Chalk Bucket rules.

I'm sorry is there a way to not show your age at all? Because I do not feel comfortable sharing my real birthday online.

You have an old code. There are now mobility requirements That went into effect a year or two ago. Gold is no longer an entry level.

This is to help you out. The attachment is from the 2019-2020 Rules and Policies, pg 48. If your coach does not have an up-to-date R&P, it can be downloaded from the USAG website. Also, lots of things have changed for Xcel, and there is a new Code of Points as well. Special requirements have been changed, deductions, etc. Make sure you have all the new materials, or your first meet could be very disappointing.

We need to know your age because we don’t want to be responsible for giving young gymnasts the wrong advice. You must be16 to join CB. We’ve had many young gymnasts come on looking for information that they should get from their coach.
