A Look at the Categories

The competition is uniquely inclusive, offering categories in both Men's and Women’s Artistic Gymnastics, as well as Men’s and Women’s Disability Artistic Gymnastics, all open to participants of any gender. The distinction in levels from 1 to 4 allows each gymnast to compete in a bracket that matches their ability:

  • Level 1 caters to those who are new to gymnastics or have never competed before.

  • Level 2 is perfect for gymnasts who are relatively new to the sport but might have some club-level experience.

  • Level 3 suits those who may have competed in county or regional competitions previously.

  • Level 4 is designed for advanced gymnasts who have experienced high-level competitive environments.

Please Read the Full Description of the Main Skill Levels in the document below.



Flexibility in Scoring

In the Women’s events, the top three apparatus scores count towards the final score, while in the Men’s events, the top four do. This scoring system encourages participation and allows gymnasts to focus on their strongest events, increasing the enjoyment and competitive spirit.
