Does anyone know about xcel routines. Is it easier to have each level to do the same routines or just get them all their own routines, in this case 13 routines.

There is no undertime. As long as all the elements are included, a bronze can be 30 seconds. The Max time for Bronze floor is 45 seconds.
Silver and Gold both have Max time of 1:00.
Why is the gym requiring a kip for Gold? It is not a requirement. In fact, the old L4 Glide & Return, Pullover counts as 2 of the 6 required skills.
Of course, if I had my way, gymnasts would not compete Silver because I hate the required vault.
Depending on the ages of the gymnasts, they might be able to help choreograph their own routines. We have 18 Optionals this year (9 Gold, 2 Platinum, 4 L6, and 3 L7). They all helped with their choreography.
With just a few in each division, I would set up a "format" for the routines... then see what each girl can do skillwise and insert the appropriate skills into the format. For Bronze, pick 1-2 different musics that would work with the format. For silver and Gold, either let the gymnasts choose from a select group or have just 5-6 choices.
Format Idea (Bronze): Select Starting position (not in corner, but near it). Dance-y moves to corner. 1/2 turn. First tumbling pass (2 connected skills - with or without flight... on the diagonal). Side dance / leap pass. Go to the floor. Do something cutesy. Get up and dance to corner. Last tumbling pass on the diagonal (can be a single tumbling skill). Ending pose.
(Silver): Select Starting position (not in corner, but near it). Dance-y moves to corner. 1/2 turn. First tumbling pass (2 connected skills - one must have flight... on the diagonal). Side dance / leap pass. Full turn. Go to the floor. Do something cutesy. Get up and dance to corner. Last tumbling pass on the diagonal (can be a single flight acro skill or 2 connected acro skills with or w/o flight). Ending dance and pose.
Glad I could help. I think you will have fun with the routinesThank you Raenndrops we have since re evaluated the girls and decided on 6 bronze and 6 silver. That was the ideas I was looking for.
