I am competing in USAIGC Bronze level this year. I think it's a lot more fun, especially people who would be in in Levels 4/5/6, because you get to compete optional routines at that level. Also, because there are less competetors, it's easy to qualify for State, Regionals, and Nationals. Plus it's easier to medal, and there are older kids, which makes it more comfortable for late starters like me, who would be competing against mostly 7-10 year olds in USAG. I am so happy about USAIGC and so excited for my meet tomorrow! (I am hoping to qualify for the all-round in State - so far I have only qualified for Floor, Beam, and Bars, so if I don't qualify for Vault I can only compete as an event specialist - 2 Events).
