It’s hard as a working parent, I work full time and as of this year am required to be back in the office 3 days a week. I’ll start my workday from home early, then drop my daughter off on the way to the office, then use my lunch hour to pick her up, and then finish my day from home. It makes for...
I think USAG should then question WHY nationals is about a battle of some arbitrary regions that aren’t evenly matched anyway. Region 2 doesn’t even have enough girls to fill out half of most of its age groups for example.
Does anyone even really care what region won? I’ve never once looked it...
I’m not sure, it doesn’t mention that situation at all here. https://cdn1.sportngin.com/attachments/document/c702-3150145/2024_All-Star_qualifications.pdf
I agree, if they aren't willing to redistribute the states into different regions for more parity, then do a % based approach. Why does it matter if the age groups are consistent at regionals and nationals?
Has USAG ever looked into readjusting the regions to make the number of girls per region even slightly more even?
Looking at the number of girls per age group for level 9/10 regionals and it just seems massively unfair for those girls in larger regions. For example if you’re a level 9/10 in...
Front handspring step out + round off would work I think? I’m not 100% sure a FHS is a B, but I think it is.
You’re correct an aerial is a D so wouldn’t be allowed.
It seems geared more towards younger girls, I've also heard complaints that they tend to focus most of their time and energy on their beam queen ambassadors. We didn't attend based on feedback I've heard, and our coach didn't really want my daughter to go either.
For a level 8 floor routine to have zero deductions you need the following
3 pass routine
- B,B,B
OR
-B,B,A+A
2 pass routine
- B+B, B+A
Some B tumbling skills on floor are front pike and front layout. Could also do a front full (C) which counts as a B at level 8.
Yes, however both series have...
