How to watch the 2026 NCAA Men’s Gymnastics Championships: Schedule, teams, individuals, predictions

The 2026 NCAA Men’s Gymnastics Championships are set for Friday-Saturday, April 17-18, at State Farm Center in Champaign, Illinois.

Michigan is looking to defend its title while Stanford and Oklahoma have proven throughout the season that they are capable of championship-caliber performances.

Friday will serve as a qualifying meet into Saturday’s finals. The top three teams from each qualifying session advance to the Super Six. The top three all-arounders not on a qualifying team, plus the top three individuals on each event not already qualified on a team or as an all-arounder, will advance from each qualifying session to the finals.

Gymnastics Now will have on-site coverage from Illinois, so stayed tuned for updates.
