ACCADEMIA CUP 2026

1. PREFACE

THE COMPETITION IS RESERVED FOR NON PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES AND NOT PARTICIPATING IN HIGH SPECIALIZATION ACTIVITIES

Based on experiences from previous years and supported by observations, experiments, advice, and constructive criticism received from Coaches and Clubs, this program aims to respond to and resolve numerous issues:

1) The search for an ideal activity for Athletes participating in entry-level courses, for those who have finished their competitive activities for at least 2 years, and for all those who view gymnastics as a moment of physical, social growth, and fun.

2) To be easily understandable and easy to use.

3) To assist and simplify the work of Coaches

4) To reward participants in activities with the opportunity to show what they have learned.

5) To offer a non-repetitive and engaging show that is continuously varied.

6) To expedite the work of judges and therefore the holding of events.

7) To create a trade union among the various age categories to avoid being forced to change goals and programs as the years go by.

8) To provide the opportunity for Athletes, their Coaches, and all Clubs to continue participating internationally in invitation-only competitions that will be organized.

To everyone, while remaining available for further improvement proposals, we wish you good work!
