25th Anniversary February 14-16, 2025
In early 2001, approximately 100 gymnasts gathered in Jacksonville for the first Sweetheart Invitational. It took just a few years to outgrow the in-house format... and morph into The Emerald Classic! Over two decades later, we have grown into one of the largest meets in Arkansas hosting over 10,000 gymnasts from seven different states.
In 2024, we hosted 880 gymnasts
from Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Tennessee!
The Emerald Classic welcomes USA Gymnastics athletes
levels 1-10 and XCEL bronze-sapphire.
