WAG USAIGC Silver Skill Requirements?

[lime-gymnast]

I am a 14 year old gymnast in a team unique to my state with very few requirements to be on the team. I am one of the older ones on the team but was thinking about moving to our USAIGC program since I am training higher level skills than most of my teammates and IGC would be the next step. For my gym I would have to be a silver for my age because the diamonds are around 12 years old from what I’ve gathered.

For those experienced in the USAIGC program, what are the requirements to compete as a silver? My biggest issues would be a series on beam (I have a bhs tuck as a dismount but I don’t think it counts), floor tumbling, and a bars routine. My current bars seems like a diamond routine. The silvers in my gym are more advanced than me which makes me think I’m not able to compete as a silver, however I do not know the requirements. I can explain what skills I already have on each event if that will help you answer the question! Thank you!

Our team only trains 7.5 hours a week and it’s honestly a miracle I’ve been able to get the skills that I have in just a few short years, so I’d be fine staying on my team as well.

Your best option is to talk with your coaches. Unless there is an age requirement, you should be doing the level that matches your skills regardless of the ages of the other girls.
Sorry to not be of more help. I do not know anything about IGC.
