GK Elite to serve as Official Provider of USA Gymnastics National Development and Xcel Programs through 2029

GK Elite, a brand of Elite Sportswear, L.P., will serve as the exclusive apparel partner for USA Gymnastics’ National Development and Xcel Programs through 2029, USA Gymnastics announced recently.
 

A partner of USA Gymnastics in various capacities since 1989, GK will further broaden its longstanding support for USAG grass roots programs across five disciplines, providing apparel for USAG's Development Programs for women's artistic, men's artistic, trampoline & tumbling, rhythmic, and acrobatic gymnastics.
 

The USA Gymnastics Women’s and Men’s Development Programs were created to help advance and cultivate the skills of artistic gymnasts looking to pursue a career in the sport. Among the events GK will support as the exclusive provider of competition and training apparel are the Development Program National Championships, the Men's and Women's East and West National Championships, Elite Team Cup, Acro Flip-n-Fun Championships, T&T Stars & Stripes Championships, Hopes Championships, and non-elite competition at the USA Gymnastics Championships. 

GK  also will support USA Gymnastics’ fast-growing women’s artistic Xcel program, which serves as an alternative competitive option to provide gymnasts of varying abilities and commitment levels the opportunity for a rewarding gymnastics experience.

“For more than 35 years, GK has been an essential supporter of USA Gymnastics in a wide range of areas,” USA Gymnastics Chief Programs Officer Stefanie Korepin said. “We are thrilled to expand our partnership across disciplines and Xcel, the fastest-growing element of USA Gymnastics athlete members. We look forward to four more years of continued growth with GK.”
 

“Over the next four years, we look forward to continuing to provide these athletes with best-in-class apparel and innovation, while partnering with USAG to continue to grow our sport.”, said Matt Cowan, Chief Executive Officer of Elite Sportswear.
