TOPS is a program to teach gyms how to produce elites. My oldest daughter went to TOPS camp at 11 yo but didn't even make testing the year before when she went to Level 10 Nationals! TOPS is merely a tool. What they will tell you at the Ranch is that "50% of the kids on the National Team did TOPS" (which also means 50% of them did not). It can become all consuming in a gym when they do too much TOPS strength and conditioning.
