    Parents Low to high score progression

    Has anyone who has been in the community for a while seen an average gymnast (34-35 scores) at the compulsory level go on to actually be competitive as an optional (36-38s)? Just looking for some feedback/curious. For the record, the child in question has repeated two levels as a compulsory.

    Understanding TOPS

    Just trying to understand TOPs. A few of our girls tested TOPs and qualified to do those level 4 TOPs routines in competition. Great news! I'm curious if those routines have a different starting value than those of standard JO. I know TOPs girls...

    Parents Understanding TOPS

    The girls who tested and qualified TOPS are working on routines with much harder skills (i.e. front tuck on floor, cast to handstand on bars, etc). That's why I'm unsure how a judge could compare standard compulsory with TOPs upgrades.

    Parents Understanding E and ND scores

    The girls I'm talking about are only compulsory level 4. Wouldn't everyone get the same starting difficulty? Only a few girls from the session received E and ND scores while the rest did not. That's why I'm confused.

    Parents Understanding E and ND scores

    So I don't understand the E and ND scores. My kiddo just went to a meet where a handful of the girls on her team received them (same level but they're TOPs and my kiddo is not). Can someone enlighten me? I'm just curious and trying to learn about the world of gymnastics! Thanks

    Parents Learning from my young gymnast

    Hi gymnastics moms & dads! I realize, as parents, a lot of us are on this site hoping to gain insight, knowledge, and support as we navigate this crazy sport with our kiddo(s). In the past, I've posted questions about my child's possible success, concerns that she's "average" at competitions...

    Parents Level 4, 20 hours a week

    My kiddo competed level 4 last year at a gym that sounds similar…15-20 hours a week. This year we switched gyms (for an array of reasons) and she’s repeating the level…only 9 hours a week. The funny thing is that the quality of her training is far superior. Many of the older girls experienced...

    Parents JO rules moving down?

    So we are considering a gym move. A mom from our current team mentioned the possibility of another gym moving my DD down a level since their standards are higher than USAG. They require fairly high scores during season in order to move up. If my child competed level 4 this year, is it even...

    Parents The average gymnast debate

    The tough part is that my kiddo has had a pretty flawless season. I mean her kip is rough LOL...she mostly muscles up but aside from that, solid. I don't know enough about the sport to fully understand all the deductions, but I know our gym simply isn't as competitive as others. It's all the...

    Parents The average gymnast debate

    Wow thank you so much for this perspective. You're absolutely right...I need to let her guide this journey. My kiddo is so coachable and she really does love this crazy sport! What an inspiration your DD must be to all the littles in her gym. Thanks again for helping me "shake my crazies" LOL
