USA Gymnastics (USAG) is the official national governing body for gymnastics in the United States, overseeing competitive gymnastics programs, athlete development, and the path to elite-level competition.
USAG provides structured programs for gymnasts of all levels, from beginner athletes learning foundational skills to elite competitors training for the Olympics.
The National Organization Leading Competitive Gymnastics in the U.S.
USA Gymnastics was established in 1963 and serves as the official organization responsible for governing competitive gymnastics in the U.S.
USAG oversees multiple disciplines, including:
Artistic Gymnastics (Men’s & Women’s)
Rhythmic Gymnastics
Trampoline & Tumbling
Acrobatic Gymnastics
Parkour & Gymnastics for All
Athletes competing in USA Gymnastics-sanctioned events follow structured progressions, ranking systems, and national-level qualification standards.
Structured Levels That Guide Gymnasts to Their Full Potential
The Developmental Program (DP), formerly known as the Junior Olympic (JO) program, follows a structured progression-based training system designed to help gymnasts advance through levels 1–10.
Each level introduces:
1) Increasingly advanced skill requirements
2) Mandatory and optional competitive routines
3) Opportunities for gymnasts to qualify for regional and national competitions
The Xcel program offers a less rigid, more flexible competition experience, allowing gymnasts to customize routines based on their strengths.
The Xcel program consists of:
1) Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond levels
2) More freedom in routine construction
3) Opportunities for gymnasts to compete at their own pace
For gymnasts who aspire to compete internationally, USAG’s Elite Program provides the highest level of competitive training, leading to:
1) National Team Selection
2) U.S. Championships & World Championships
3) Olympic Trials & Olympic Games
Only the top-ranked gymnasts in the country qualify for elite competitions.
Gymnasts begin their journey by competing in local, state, and regional qualifying meets. These events provide opportunities to gain experience, improve scores, and advance to higher-level competitions. To move forward, gymnasts must meet specific performance criteria set by USAG.
The USAG National Championships bring together top athletes from across the country to compete at the highest levels in Artistic, Rhythmic, and Trampoline & Tumbling Gymnastics. To qualify, gymnasts must compete in official USAG-sanctioned events and achieve the required scores for advancement.
With a clear and structured level system, gymnasts progress through organized training milestones, competitions, and development programs.
USAG offers competitive opportunities for all gymnasts, from beginners in developmental levels to elite athletes on the national stage.
Many top collegiate gymnasts come from the USA Gymnastics program, making it the primary pathway for NCAA gymnastics scholarships.
Gymnasts can join through local USAG-affiliated gymnastics clubs that follow the official USAG training structure.
USAG requires athletes to meet specific skill and score requirements to qualify for regional and national competitions.
