Parents Petitioning

[XcelMom08]

Does anyone have experience petitioning to go from Xcel to JO? Age wise, she is allowed to go to Level 6 or 7 from what I’m reading. Her coach mentioned it before but we left a pin on it. I wouldn't purse it until she made the RBHS connection consistently anyway.

My daughter moved from Xcel Gold to L6 and went the score out route due to her age, but from what I understand if you're over age 12 and have the necessary skills for level 6, you can go through the petition process which includes a form and videos of the skills (I think). Your coach needs to do it. A strong ROBHS is a given - one of the level 5 floor passes is a ROBHSBT so you'd need to have that skill as part of the petition. Also need kip/flyaway on bars, and working BHS on beam. Good luck!
