Bronze & Silver level requirements & skill combinations
Strength & flexibility
Coachability - ability to follow directions, take correction, willingness to try new things

🤸 What Is XCEL?
XCEL is a USA Gymnastics (USAG) program offering a flexible, athlete‑centered alternative to the traditional Jr. Development Program. It allows gymnasts to perform a wider variety of skills while still following level guidelines. Athletes may move between XCel and the JD program as they advance - movement between XCel and JD is a decision between the athlete, parent & coaches.
Why Families Love XCEL at GTCO:
Personalized Progression: Athletes advance at their own pace with routines tailored to their strengths within set guidelines.
Balanced Lifestyle: With fewer required practice hours, 80% of our XCel athletes participate in multiple sports and activities.
Exceptional Coaching: Our XCEL coaches bring experience from preschool to optional levels, working together to create the BEST team experience possible.
