I'm curious how many of y'all have high school gymnastics teams? We do, which I love, but someone mentioned it's not the norm? If you don't have that as an option, is your athlete aiming for a college team or just riding the gymnastics wave as far as they want to?

Good morning everyone. Does anyone knows for Illinois, what does it take to be accepted in the high school gymnastics team? What level should the gymnast be? When are usually the tryouts and are these information posted online or we have to ask the school beforehand? Thank you in advance.

So I'm non binary. Just wondering what the rules are. I'm biologically female, and hoping to compete in women's gymnastics but I wasn't sure if my gender identity plays a role into anything IHSA wise. Also curious on the guidelines of this for USAG. Thoughts?

What should I know for my first year of high school experience as a freshman. I’m in 8th grade, math comes easy for me and I enjoy it, so does science but I hate chemistry and some physics, I am a strong writer but reading comprehension isn’t my best. I am taking advanced biology next year, gym...

I am wondering if your child do one more PG year , will this give you one more year , so your child get more prepared to apply for college gymnastics team?

Do you ever think about moving to TX ,almost half of National team members are from WOGA!!! Any thoughts? My daughter is doing level9 now , really think about a best gym for her for high school critical time .

How do you feel about elementary aged kids missing school for practice? My daughter will be training level 4 next year and one of her scheduled gym practices is a school day 12-4. I hate this. I expressed concern to competitive manger and they are not willing to change time, not willing to let...

I'm from Australia and am curious about the system for middle school gymnastics. What are the requirements and what levels are they similar to? Is it true that they use Xcel requirements? If anyone knows, that would be great!

In our gym we have a middle school program, I’m planning to be in it, but I’m sure if I’ll progress. The middle girls train the same time as us. I’m not trying to be rude are anything but the middle school girls have a lower skill level than me. A lot of the gymnasts have never done gymnastics...

For those that have both a home school (HS) group at their gym and an evening group (EG) do you feel that your gym favors the "home school" kids? I have started to feel some frustration over the years because the HS kids seem to get more advantages and consideration on things. The Head...

There are multiple threads on this already, but I wanted to put the question out here. I'm having trouble with grades (around a C) in my math class. It is an advanced class for my grade level and the only class I am struggling with. My parents have told me if my grades don't pick up, I will...

Should my daughter downplay Varsity High School cheerleading when she posts to he social media for gymnastics recruiting? Would college gym coaches percieve her as not a serious recruit if she does cheer also. She is good at both but I am wondering if we really do need to keep these worlds...

Hi, My daughter just started middle school in a new town. Being the new kid she got alot of unwanted attention. She is kind of shy and keeps to herself. On her first day of school she had to get picked up at 12:30 since her summer scedule was still going on. When she came back the next day a...

Hello everyone.. I am from Calif. Moving to Brentwood TN and my daughter is about to go into competitive level rhythmic gymnastics at her school in Calif and would be devastated if I pulled her out and move her to TN unless she has another class she will able to go to.. I looked and called all...

My daughter is a 1st year level 9, and senior in high school, which surprisingly with COVID she did really well with having to take 3-months off practice. She has been in gymnastics for 13 years and loves it dearly. My daughter just competed JO USAG level 9 State Meet and had some great...

I just thought that I would share something that is quite comical about my DD’s and their grades they received in PE this past semester. They each got B’s in PE for the second quarter in a row. The specific area that they both received this in was the ability to maintain healthy levels of...

Our school district will be offering this online option to students who continue distance learning next semester: www.edgenuity.com. It is a 6-12 curriculum, NCAA compliant. I'm wondering if anyone knows of it and if it is a rigorous academic educational option?

My kids start back 4 days a week in person in two weeks and have to wear masks all day, obviously. The school made parents commit to all virtual or a hybrid of in-person/virtual last week and only 40% wanted the hybrid option, so they are actually letting our kids go 4 days since there is enough...
