Level 9 for mine. In January. If all goes well.

We are going to this meet too. This is gonna be our first time there

I agree with vagymmomma it is way better to repeat a level than to compete one than the girl does not feel comfortable doing it. And to feel comfortable competing the gymnast has to have numbers. Numbers of repetitions of skills and routines. She is gonna come stronger as a gymnast, with a huge...

Yes the FIG Code with a DV and an EV. The DV for the Tsuk vault is 4.0(tuck) and 4.2(pike). Considering she has on bars a clear to hand, a pirouette, casts to hand, giants, flyaway in bars, etc. I know the clear to hand is a C element and the rest are A's or B's Beam: she has her switch leap...

I am just wondering what the DV for normal Level 8's routines are? If somebody can please help me Vault : Tsuk tuck or pike, I know I can find that value Floor:? Beam:? Bars:? Just wondering in case my DD goes to compete in a place where they have the International Scoring now...

Thank you... our new level 7's (they are doing 6/7 double season) didn't have their giants for the first couple of meets, they are working right now to put their giants in their routines. They all have the same routine and their start values were either 9.5, 9.2 or 8.6 depending how high her...

What would be the start value of the following level 7 bar routine. kip, Cast to hand stand, clear hip circle to handstand, pike on... jump to the high bar, kip, cast to hand stand and layout flyaway. (No giants, no second clear hip). Thanks....

Ok, It was not Big D best performance, but she is happy and I am happy too. First went Bars, she did a great routine, her casts were above 45 and so was her clear hip circle, but not nearly close to a HS (she is working on that) at her gym they don't let the girls cast to HS while arching...

She will be JrA3

Big D is competing this Sunday morning (after Halloween) at South State, Level 6. There are going to be 17 girls in her age group and the top 10 qualify for State. This year Texas subdivided the age groups in 15 instead of having Gold , Silver and Bronze division in each age group. She is...

You are right Invitationals have higher scores than usual.

She is 9 and turning 10 in January and she loves gymnastics. I am going to have a conversation with her Coach today because I want her first to keep her grades at school (5th grade, Average 98 so far, with 20/hour of gym per week) so I don't want to increase hours, keep her healthy (no injuries...

Ok, today when I picked up my DD from practice she told me "Mom, we need to talk". I knew exactly what she was going to tell me. Her Coach told the level 6 group, who just won 1st place team at the District Championship, that as soon as State is over in November they will start working very...

Because they have a district Championship for level 4, 5 and 6's. They qualified 300 girls for South State and then they take 150 from North and 150 from South and have 300 girls at State. Level 4 only have South (or North) State so they make the cut at District Championship. Level 5 has a cut...
