Capital Cup format
AAI equipment on all apparatus and boards at each event. All boards will stay on the apparatus assigned. There will be two sets of equipment, except for floor.
This is a USAG sanctioned event so only team coaches, competing athletes, judges, and meet officials will be allowed on the competition floor. Please remind parents and non-competing team members of this rule.
The "Fiesta Jam" event finals is our highlight event, it is a fun, exciting event for the athletes and the spectators.
* Level 8: Event champion on each event from each session
* Level 9: Top 3 Juniors and top 3 Seniors on each event from each session
* Level 10/Open: Top 3 Juniors and top 3 Seniors on each event from each session
Scores from each session will be posted following completion of each session as well as online at www.alamoclassic.com/results and www.meetscoresonline.com
There will be Individual and All Around awards presented to the athletes in each age group following each competitive session. There will also be team awards given to the top 3 teams at each level. Each gymnast will receive a participation award. For awards, every age group is divided up into between 5 and 10 age groups, and this is done evenly, rather then by a specific age. For example, in level 8, there are 6 age groups: The youngest 1/6th will be Junior A; the next 1/6th will be Junior B and so on. If there is more than 1 session of a level, the same number of age groups apply for every session, though exact dates will differ. We will also be recognizing all 2009 graduating seniors during this years’ Classic. We want to recognize their participation on our website, in our meet program and at the Fiesta Jam finals on February 21, 2009.
