ABOUT
The USAIGC has created its own rules to meet our competitive goals and objectives and those Countries in our Competitive Program. The International Gymnasts benefits from our USAIGC College Bound Program. We used the NCAA Collegiate Rules for our overall program. We have created an intelligent competitive program that allows our gymnasts to move up our “competitive ladder” in an intelligent and logical manner. Our competitive program is based on athlete longevity; we want to intentionally slow down the learning process of skill development allowing the coach and gymnast time to develop more challenging skills. The USAIGC gymnast will work on lead-up skills, drills, strength, conditioning, and flexibility, while continuing to perfect execution. By doing this it will have a major impact on reducing injuries because skills will be mastered at a logical and safe pace for each gymnast. It is our goal is to have our gymnasts peak during their junior high school year and be prepared to compete in the Collegiate Program. Our Coaches wish to develop well-rounded, healthy, bright young ladies who are nurtured in a healthy competitive environment prepared to be tomorrows leaders.
