The Madison Area YMCA Rosettes Gymnastics Team delivered an exceptional performance at the 88th YMCA National Gymnastics Championship, themed "Blooming with Opportunity," held June 27 - July 1, 2026, in Greensboro, North Carolina. The Rosettes celebrated four National Championship team titles, with the Xcel Diamond (fourth consecutive year), Xcel Gold (third consecutive year), Xcel Silver, and Xcel Sapphire teams each earning 1st Place National Champion honors. The Xcel Platinum team also delivered an outstanding performance, capturing 2nd Place in a highly competitive field of 21 teams.

Every day at the Madison Area YMCA, something remarkable happens: a child builds confidence, a teen discovers leadership, a senior finds connection, and a working parent gains peace of mind. None of it happens alone. It happens because of you, our amazing community of people who give back to ensure that our Y has been - and always will be - a support system for every family in our area. There truly is no place like this place because of generous individuals like you.
