 How to become a judge...

Judging is a lot of fun!  We are always in need of judges, and it is a fun way to participate in this great sport!
​To become an active judge, there are a few steps you'll need to take: obtain testing information, become a USAG Professional Member (which includes a Background Check and Safety Certification), study, pass your test.

  • Updates and changes from the USA Gymnastics JO Committees

STUDY
