2016 NC AAU Gymnastics Program Updates
*All changes will be effective August 2016
Meet Registration Price Increase: Meet entry fees are changing to cover the increase in costs to meet directors (increased judges wages, mileage, awards, etc). NC AAU has not increased costs to meet fees in many years. We are still proud to offer the lowest competition fees in state.
Qualifiers $50/gymnast (In-house)
$60/gymnast (outside facility)
State Meet $70/gymnast
Online Meet Registration: We will be transitioning to a new online meet registration company for Team NC fees, qualifiers & state meets. More details will be shared at the July Bi-Annual meeting.
AAU Congress: The Team NC AAU Board will be hosting a state AAU Congress this fall. Please send in any topics you would like to be covered (Xcel, technique, spotting, meet directing, etc.) to Cris Fuller at knightdalegym@gmail.com
First Qualifier: Coaches entering gymnasts into their first qualifier of the season must determine each gymnasts division based on their individual level of proficiency if an all-around score has not yet been achieved. Some suggestions are:
Meet Intents: It is CRITICAL that you submit your intent to any AAU meet you intend on attending as these intents are instrumental during the judging assignment process. Clubs who submit their intent on the NC-NAWGJ.org website will be given priority in the meet registration process!
(*Clarification- Completing your intent does not guarantee you entrance into any meet!)
