USAG: DP & Xcel Team Programs

Bright Stars Academy USA Gymnastics DP competitive program: Gymnasts begin competing compulsory with our Level 2 team. Opportunities include competing in local, state regional, national and international competitions. Our teams have enjoyed great success earning many first-place finishes in prestigious competitions throughout the US. Bright Stars has had numerous state, regional and national champion gymnasts!


The USAG XCEL Program is designed to offer broad-based, affordable competitive experience outside the traditional Junior Olympic program to attract and retain a diverse group of athletes. XCEL gymnasts have the opportunity to compete in great competitions in NJ and PA. The XCEL program will allow gymnasts to train fewer hours per week leaving time for other activities while still being part of a USAG program! XCEL is a program that is comparable in some ways to USAIGC, yet XCEL is overseen by USA Gymnastics.
