Invitation Programs

Canadian Provincial Program – CPP (Formally the JO Program)

Gymnastics Canada has adopted the JO Program to provide direction and foster competition for different age groups of girls and young women of various levels of ability and commitment. Gymnastics Saskatchewan uses this tool as a guide to provide programming for female gymnasts in Saskatchewan and allows gymnasts at Level 3 and higher to compete and try to qualify for Provincial Championships annually.

XCEL Program

XCEL is an alternative competitive program offering individual flexibility to coaches and gymnasts. The goal of XCEL is to provide gymnasts of varying abilities and commitment levels with the opportunity for a rewarding competitive gymnastics experience. Athletes will compete Optional routines fulfilling 4 Special Requirements on each apparatus. This program will give gymnasts the opportunity to train and compete skills and routines that suit their strengths rather than competing compulsory content as is in the JO program.  The XCEL Program offers; Gold-Platinum.

At Gelico Gymnastics Club, our objective is to have our athletes work on perfecting the routines for the level they are ready to compete in, as well as working toward the skills required for the next level, with a  focus on quality gymnastics, precision and form.
