USAG Levels 4-10 Teams – Must join Naydenov Gymnastics Booster Club

The first level of competition is level 4. The girls will compete on Bars, Beam, Floor, and Vault. After receiving the required score and their coach’s approval, athletes will advance up the USAG level system from Level 4 to Level 10 followed by the elite international level. Levels 4-6 are compulsory levels, meaning that all the athletes at any particular level are doing the exact same routines. Levels 7 and up are optional levels, meaning that each athlete will have their own routines based on some guide lines for each level. A very small percentage of athletes will go onto the elite level where they may become a candidate for the Olympics. Every year we usually have a small group of young women usually level 9 and above that become eligible for college scholarships.

USAG HOPES, JUNIOR ELITE, & SENIOR ELITE

There are less than 300 women’s elite gymnasts in the country and usually less than 3 in the state of Washington. These athletes eventually are training for a spot on the senior national team and train approximately 40 hours a week. The top six will be selected for the Women’s Gymnastics Olympic team.
