Petition Forms for Level 9 & 10 and Xcel Regionals

Posted: 01.18.2012

If a gymnast is unable to compete at the State Meet (or cannot compete in the All-Around at State Meet) due to injury or illness prior to or during the State Meet, her coach may petition the Regional Technical Committee Chairman to allow the athlete to directly enter the Regional Championships.  Petitions are allowed for Level 9, Level 10 and Xcel Regionals.  No petitions are allowed for Level 7 Regionals or Level 8 Regionals, since Regional qualification is by placement.
