Boys
Junior Developmental Program (JDP)
The Boys Junior Developmental Program is designed for athletes who are ready for a higher level of training, commitment, and competitive gymnastics.Through structured progressions and focused coaching, athletes are challenged to develop strength, technique, and discipline as they work toward reaching their highest potential in the sport.The JDP program requires increased commitment and accountability, with higher expectations both in and out of the gym. In return, athletes gain the opportunity to grow as competitors and as individuals.At Gleason’s, we are committed to helping each gymnast pursue excellence through hard work, resilience, and dedication—while building skills and confidence that extend far beyond gymnastics.
Boys Team Levels
BOYS' PRE-TEAM- Junior Boys & Training Team
Pre-Team is the first step into the boys’ competitive pathway and serves as an introduction to team training.
Athletes are selected from preschool and recreational programs based on ability, maturity, and interest. At this stage, the focus is on developing proper technique, strength, and foundational skills.
Gymnasts train on all six men’s Olympic events—floor, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars, and high bar—along with trampoline training to support air awareness and coordination.
Athletes progress through Pre-Team and Training Team as they prepare for competitive levels.
