It’s a great way for athletes to get a taste of competitive gymnastics while still having fun and learning the basics.
INTERCLUB PERFORMANCE
The BC Interclub Program is performance based and is meant to focus on the opportunity to perform rather than the skill requirements of the routine. Athletes are given creative license in routine development and work alongside coaches to prepare routines. Athletes will have the opportunity to showcase their personal ability without the pressure of being ranked or having scores displayed in events throughout the year. There will be competitive opportunities offered to athletes throughout the season.
WAG XCEL
In 2020, BC partially adopted the USA Gymnastics Xcel program to bridge the gap between the BC Interclub and the Canadian Competitive Program (CCP). This program is an alternate competitive program which offers flexibility in skill achievement to gymnasts, and its goal is to provide a rewarding gymnastics experience to gymnasts of varying abilities and commitment levels.
Key City Gymnastics Club Offers the Following Xcel Training Paths:

Xcel Silver, Gold, Platinum & Diamond
The Xcel Silver, Gold, Platinum & Diamond Program runs alongside the CCP Program and is for athletes who have the desire to build a solid gymnastics foundation and progress to the skills that are suited to each individual athlete and needed to advance to higher levels of gymnastics. The Xcel Silver, Gold, Platinum & Diamond Program provides athletes who have a goal to compete in the CCP Optional Levels a pathway to move forward by working on event skills that are most beneficial to each individual athlete.
WAG CANADIAN COMPETITIVE PROGRAM
The CCP Program provides an excellent conditioning system and progressions, teaching each skill in a particular order. The program was developed to help gymnasts build a solid foundation in the sport of gymnastics and safely advance on to harder skills and higher competitive levels. The CCP Program consists of 10 levels, 1-5 being compulsory levels and 6-10 being optional levels.
CCP Compulsory starts at Level 1 and goes to Level 5. All gymnasts perform the same routines. As they advance through the levels, the routines become progressively harder and more complex.
CCP Level 6-10 are optional levels. Routines are composed and choreographed individually for each gymnast. All events have certain criteria that the gymnast must meet to maximize their potential score. Each level has progressively harder criteria.
