    Rules on changing gyms mid season

    Does anyone know the rules for changing gyms during a season? My daughter switched to a new gym this year & still has not competed for the new team & may want to switch back to her old gym. Does anyone know if there is a waiting period for this type of situation?

    (stupid) rules regarding spotting/competition

    In women's meets at the JO level, there is a deduction if the coach is standing too close during beam and bars routines, even if they do not touch or talk to the gymnast. Why is this? It seems like it adds unnecessary risk and psychological stress to the two events which are probably already the...
