Here at New England Sports Academy we continually strive to create new and innovative ways for your child to achieve the most out of their sport experience. Beginning this summer of 2006, NESA will be giving its recreational gymnasts the opportunity to join and compete in the fall at the USA Gymnastics Prep Optional Program.

USAG PREP OP is an alternative to the Competitive Program for USAG registered athletes. This program is intended to allow gymnasts the opportunity to compete, while not having the rigorous demand that a traditional competitive program would have. There are three levels in PREP OP- Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced. Novice level gymnasts would be compared to NESA’s recreational levels one and two. Intermediate level gymnasts would be equivalent to NESA’s recreational level three, and Advanced level gymnasts would be most similar to NESA’s recreational levels four through ten.

We now offer an optional extra practice on Fridays for all Prep Op levels.

The USAG PREP OP competitive season begins in the late fall. Gymnasts will be able to choose to compete in six or more competitions. Recreational competition is a fun and rewarding experience for all who choose to participate in it. Now NESA recreational gymnasts have the option of taking their gymnastics experience to the next level.
