Watch the 2021 USA Gymnastics Development Program National Championships May 13-16 live on FloGymnastics!

NCAA gymnastics gained more recognition in the past years in large part thanks to some memorable college routines going viral. The first routine to really go viral was LSU Gymnast  Lloimincia Hall's floor routine in 2014, but arguably the queen of the viral routine is UCLA’s Katelyn Ohashi, whose moonwalking helped make her floor routines from both 2018 and 2019 spread like wildfire- her 2019 routine currently has 161,708,668 views on the UCLA Athletics youtube page. Though the 2021 season was a unique one with less of an audience, it was no exception in producing viral routines.

Several years ago, USAG introduced an alternative to the traditional Junior Olympic (JO) now renamed USA Gymnastics Development National Program path, a route most competitive gymnasts take. In 2013, USAG created the Xcel Gymnastics program describing it as "a broad-based, affordable, competitive experience outside the traditional Junior Olympic program.”
