Has anyone been to the Cactus Cup? Would it be worthwhile to attend this meet as a spectator? Would it be worthwhile to attend any meet as a spectator?
My family and I will be on vacation in AZ and I happen to notice the timing would work out very nicely to watch level 8-10 compete. My dd (level 2) has been recovering from an injury for over a month so she’s been away from gymnastics (though she’s started some conditioning again). I thought she might enjoy watching a meet which we've never done before.
I've heard so many people talk about dreading going to meets (even to watch their own kids) so I wasn't sure whether it would really be a worthwhile but I figured I would ask. Reading other posts about meets it sounds like it would not be unusual for overcrowding, dealing with CGM/CGD (not CBers), disorganization, poor planning, lots of waiting, poor views,.... Possibly the last place anyone would want to be unless they were there to watch their gymnast.
Thanks for any opinions.
