Girls Team

RRVA's girls competitive program is organized according to USA Gymnastics. It is designed with levels based on skill ability, beginning with Level 3 and advancing to Level 10. Our philosophy is to provide the mental and physical discipline needed for competition within a framework of positive reinforcement and encouragement.

Developmental

Red River Valley Athletics pre-competitive program is designed as a first introduction to competitive gymnastics and training for competition. Gymnasts have fun learning new and challenging skills in a fast paced atmosphere with emphasis on correct technique, form, strength and flexibility. Our pre-team gymnasts train 1.5 - 7.5 hours per week.

COMPULSORY

Our compulsory program consists of levels 3 - 5. Gymnasts train 9 - 13.5 hours per week. At competitions, gymnasts are required to compete the same routines and are judged according to a norm as well as each other.

OPTIONAL

Our optional program consists of levels 6 - 10. Gymnasts train 20 hours per week. In these levels, coaches determine choreography and routines. Gymnasts receive scores based on difficulty, execution and composition.

Xcel - Girls

RRVA's Xcel program is a USA Gymnastics sanctioned program designed to offer an affordable competitive alternative to the traditional USAG competitive program. The purpose of the Xcel Program is to present recreational gymnasts the opportunity to participate in competition and/or provide competitive gymnasts the opportunity to continue competition without the intense time commitment. The Xcel program is comprised of five divisions; bronze, silver, gold, platinum and diamond. All routines are optional with certain requirement variations and can be designed to showcase the gymnast's strengths. Gymnasts practice between 4 and 10 hours per week. Gymnasts must be 6 years of age to compete.

Boys Team

RRVA's boys competitive program is organized according to USA Gymnastics. It is designed with levels based on skill ability, beginning with Level 3 and advancing to Level 10. We also offer developmental classes to those athletes that are interested in competing and would like to begin building the skills required to do so.
