Region 5 is trying something new and we want your help!
Starting September 1 and running through September 30 we are asking for our community to design the State Leotards. Each state will use the winning design as their design for the annual state leotard (worn at Regionals for Xcel and Level 6-8), with a different color representing each state.
Here is what you need to know:
• Use the attached Silhouette
• No fancy straps, has to be tank style with solid straps
• Needs to say your state name
• Needs to say 2025 somewhere on the leotard
• No embellishments
All 5 states will be running this contest at the same time, then each state will choose 1 to bring to the committee for a vote. Every state will have the same leotard this year with different color pallets. So think about our GREAT region and design something that brings us all together!
Send your design along with your name, gym, email and/or phone number to apparel@ohiousag.org
So get those creative thoughts going and join in on the FUN, you might just be the one to design the 2025 Regional Leotard. The Ohio winner gets their Leo for free!
Deadline is September 30

Dear Xcel coaches, athletes and families,
We are writing to inform you of an important update concerning the formation of state teams for the upcoming Xcel regional meet. It has come to our attention that there were errors in the initial team assignments which inadvertently resulted in multiple teams per session, rather than the intended single team per session.
The Region 5 team is actively working to correct these discrepancies within the core frameworks of the competition. We aim to release the revised information as soon as possible.
Please be aware that due to these corrections, there may be changes to the composition of the state teams, including the possibility that some athletes previously listed as team members may not be included in the revised listings. We understand the disappointment this may cause and sincerely apologize for any confusion and stress this may cause.
Thank you for your patience, support and understanding as we quickly correct the state team format. We are committed to providing timely updates and will inform you as soon as the corrected team listings are available.
Warm regards,
Kristy Fries

o Cancellation occurs within 24 hours of booking – no penalty
o Cancellation occurs after 24 hours but prior to 7 days to arrival - $100 penalty per reservation
