What Is Junior 3 FLEX?
Junior 3 Flex is a provisional Elite-tier division offering more age flexibility and bumps in skill levels for gyms that may not have enough athletes for a standard Junior 3 team. It allows teams to compete using Level 3 skills, including handsprings, tucks, and some pyramids, within a wider age group than standard Divisions.
Why be on Junior Blaze?
Increased roster flexibility: Ideal for smaller programs or combined-age teams.
Skill-appropriate progression: Offers more challenging skills than Junior 2, but without the major jumps required for Level 4 or 5.
Provisional division: USASF is evaluating its long-term viability after the 2025–26 season.
