    Parents Having trouble finding Boating vests for my gymnasts

    The boys have grown out of their vests from last year. We have been looking for new ones. Every one that is the correct weight for them, are way to small in the chest. Anyone have this problem before? Where did you find them? We also don't want to spend an arm and a leg on them, since they...

    MAG NCAA Championships Question about Event Final Qualification

    Anyone know how an athlete gets to the event finals whose team didn't make it to the finals? I know its possible, since there were athletes out there whose team didn't make it, but my question is how? A gymnast tied for fourth on the first day and his score would have tied for eigth on the day...

    I thought we could let each other know when there is actual men's gymnastics on tv via this thread. lol. I noticed a tri meet last night of Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska, watched it with the boys, and we all enjoyed it so much!! Of course, it helped that we personally knew some of the guys out...

    MAG Prime Age

    Is there somewhere I can see the 'prime age' for the different levels? Does it change based on state or region? Is it always the same, or does it change with the code of points with the Olympic cycle? Other than things like the "All State Team" where else does this affect them? Is there ever...

    MAG Scrapbooking for boys gymnastics

    Anyone have any good sources, or is it all just chance to find materials? Of course, like everything else, girls stuff is everywhere....

    MAG Mens national teams and their original gyms

    I was thinking about how when girls change gyms, you hear all about it. Norah Flatley, McKayla Maroney, Kerri Strug, Vanessa Atler, Dominique Moceanu, etc. You hear about their old gym, and about their new gym. Anyway, I was thinking about how most of the men change gyms because of going to...

    No Chellsie:(

    I am so sad that Chellsie's beam routine was not her normal routine today and that she won't be able to go to Nats and Olympic Trials. She really should have done her floor so that the selection committee could see more than a messed up routine. I bet if this was 2008 where there was less...

    MAG Are the boys compulsory routines changing for the next season?

    I have heard a lot about the girls changing, but didn't hear anything about the boys changing, so I thought that they weren't. But now I hear they may be as well. So, are the boys changing too? Where do you get info about this? I know the stock answer will be "Trust your coach" which I do, but...

    MAG Competition formats

    Why are there so many different competition formats? My son had his first "true capital cup" format yesterday, and let me tell you, we hated it. It seems dangerous too! He is a Level 4 guy, so I think feeling comfortable on the eqpt seems to be the most important thing. I know he has told...

    MAG age requirement question

    Last night I noticed that two of the boys from other gyms in the area also competed level four last year. Of course, kids can repeat levels, but last year these boys competed as six year olds, and this year they are also competing as six year olds. So, here is my question. Do you have to be...
