Accommodations
Qualifications
All Xcel gymnasts must qualify first to attend the Championships - this will happen at one of their earlier meets (Glacier Fest or Key City or Kelowna Invitational). We will notify you once your child has qualified
Competition Attire
It’s very important that at a competition of this caliber, the gymnasts are following the Team Uniform mandate. If gymnasts choose to wear shorts, they must wear competition shorts that match the colour/fabric of the competition team suit (black) and they may not have colour or logos on them that are larger than a quarter (for example, the shorts with the rhinestone bear logo won’t work).
Photo Pre-Order:
Professional gymnastics photography will be available at this year’s Championships, captured by gymnastics-specialized photographer Luke O’Geil. With over seven years of experience covering provincial, national, and international competitions, Luke has worked with Alberta Gymnastics, GymBC, GymSask, and Gymnastics Canada, delivering high-quality images that highlight the artistry and athleticism of the sport.

We ask that in the event of an unforeseen circumstance that prevents your gymnast from otherwise attending, please call the office or your coach as soon as you know. We appreciate getting as much notice as possible. Ph: (250) 352-2227 or email info@glaciergymnastics.com.
No Show Policy
A great deal of time, effort and expense are invested in attending the various meets & competitions throughout the season. Accurate participant lists are essential to providing our gymnasts the best experience possible. Parents are expected to notify the Club if they will not be attending an event. No Show Gymnasts (those who are on our list, but fail to attend), create a significant amount of unnecessary work and are subject to an administration fee.
