Ladies/Gentlemen:
You are invited to listen this new Gymnastics Song: => http://www.gymnastictimes.com/theme_lyrics.htm Having invoved in this sport, you may find it somewhat entertaining. Please feel free to pass it along.
After many years of traveling around with our daughter for her gymnastic meets, one morning, at the 2nd meet of this season, the idea came to my mind and I decided to write this song to describe the love, passion, and discipline of these young girls young ladies and their devotion to their gymnastics sport.
Sincerely,
Duke Nguyen Browning
Attention Club Owners and Professional Members!
Every day we pick up the paper and read an article or hear a story on the news about the need to increase fitness opportunities for America’s youth. We are constantly reminded of the challenges that our youth face fighting the sedentary lifestyle that is a consequence of computers, video games, TV and other technologies. USA Gymnastics and the gymnastics community can lead the way in being a part of the solution; a solution that starts with the gymnastics clubs. (Click here for more)

From Region 5 JO John Geddert
"For those who missed it, the 2006 National Championships was one of the most rewarding and exciting gymnastics events ever (at least from our point of view). We have had many successful national meets in the past. We have laid claim to the over all Regional Team Champions 5 of the last 7 years. We have captured 5 of 8 age group team titles on at least 4 separate occasions. STILL this year’s event carries special significance!

Updated Ruling for competitors who are non-citizens living and training in the US.
Effective immediately, non-citizen athletes who meet the above criteria will be eligible to compete and receive awards for all USA Gymnastics Junior Olympic sanctioned events including State, Regional, East/West and JO Nationals.
If a non-citizen athlete places in the top four (4) AA at JO Nationals, she will receive the award for her All-Around placement, however; she is not eligible to become a member of the US JO National Team. In this instance, the next US citizen in rank order will be placed on the JO National Team.
