2008-2009 NC USA Gymnastics Competitive Season Guidelines
ALL CURRENT USA GYMNASTICS RULES &
POLICIES must be followed for sanctioned competitive events.
DECLARATION DATE:
North Carolina USA Gymnastics State
Administrative Committee does not require a Sectional to qualify for any
State Meet. A qualifying meet need only be sanctioned, following Rules
& Policies.
Therefore this is the explanation of a
“Declaration Date” in R & P , Section I Eligibility, C., Dropping Back
through the Levels, #1.
When contemplating a new level, a
gymnast is allowed to compete two levels, at will, before a State Meet.
However, the gymnast must be qualified at the level of the State Meet
she enters by the Declaration Date.
For example: A gymnast qualifies for
the Level 5 State Meet in October, but competes as a Level 6 in
November, and qualifies for Level 6 State Meet. If she decides that she
wants to compete in the Level 5 State Meet, she needs to re-qualify as a
Level 5 by the Declaration Date. |
