About the NPI
A Brighter future
In 2021 USA Gymnastics and the National Gymnastics Foundation contracted The Pictor Group to give a jump start to NCAA Men’s Gymnastics. At the time there were 13 remaining NCAA programs. Through those efforts, we have seen 2 new programs established. Both programs successfully fielded full rosters in their inaugural seasons and demonstrated success both in and out of the gym. These programs have provided the blueprints for growth and have established a new standard for the New Program Initiative.
The New Program Initiative branch of the CGA was created to grow and sustain NCAA men’s gymnastics. We work to create new programs at the NCAA level while also providing resources to protect current programs. The NPI will develop and present material to universities with the goal to establish opportunities for NCAA men’s gymnastics.
