XCEL

The Xcel program stands for poise, rhythm, execution and presentation. The program is an alternative to the Junior Olympic program and introduces the athletes to a basic level of the optional program. At GLC our Xcel program focuses on instilling a love of gymnastics, team camaraderie and dedication all while allowing the athlete to work out a limited number of hours.

Bronze and Silver Teams: The athletes on these teams compete at 6-10 competitions a year. The athletes have choreographed routines on all four events and work on skills from backward rolls to back handsprings. The teams work out 3-6 hours per week. 

Gold/Platinum/Diamond Teams: The athletes compete in approximately 10 competitions a year. The athletes have choreographed routines on all four events with increased skill level. The teams work out 6-12 hours a week.
