TEAMS
We build trust, dedication, and teamwork abilities into our competitive gymnasts and teams. We believe that keeping your athletes safe, confident, healthy, and motivated is the key to our mission. Using life skills that our athletes can transfer into their own personal development and growth is our secret ingredient to maximize each athlete’s achievements.

JUNIOR OLYMPICS (JO) TEAMS
The JO Development Program was developed with the belief that all athletes, regardless of their potential, must have a solid foundation of basic skills in order to advance safely. The program allows the gymnast to advance at her own pace, competing in more than one level in a year, if she so chooses. The Women’s Development Program is divided into three major segments; developmental, compulsory, and optional.
- 6-8 Meets Per Year
- State Competition
- Level 7+ Regionals
- Levels 9+ Westerns & Nationals
The Developmental Levels 1 through 3 may be used as a non-competitive and achievement-oriented program for use within a gym’s pre-team program, or they may be used as an introductory/recreational competitive program. States may offer State Championships for these levels.
The second part consists of Compulsory Levels 4 and 5. Both of these levels are progressive in nature, building upon the skills required at the previous level. Competitive opportunities are provided up to and including the USA Gymnastics State Championships.
The third segment is the Optional Levels 6-10. Levels 6, 7, 8, and 9 have difficulty restrictions, while Level 10 has no restrictions in the skill choice. Composition is evaluated at Levels 8, 9, and 10. Refer to the Development Code of Points for a complete explanation of Level 6-10 rules. (usagym.org).
We have top of the line coaches with the highest of quality coaching statuses. We are passionate about each and every one of our athletes and their fastest track to success within the JO Program. At Momentum Athletic Center, we offer all levels of JO. Those are Levels 1 through Level 10 within the USAG regulations.
