At dd first meet the host gym handed out medals to first through sixth place for each event and first through sixth place overall. Is this typical or will it be different at each meet?

The norm for our comps is usually -
All Around - Trophy for 1st-3rd, and medals for 4th-6th
Apparatus - medals for 1st-3rd and ribbons for 4th-6th
Each division can have well over 100 girls so most do not receive anything.

If you have 100 kids in a session that must take a very long time unless you have some special competition formats like in the US.
Wow! What state are you in? I guessing NSW? The most I have ever seen in an award group over here is 25. DD had 14 in her group at states!

NSW here and yes usually 25-40 per session (6-10 per rotation, usually on the higher side, if its a big comp with two sets of apparatus double that but sometimes that will be two different levels/age divisions just to eek things out, lol. ) and at the larger competitions (eg states) there will be several sessions with awards at the end. And no one wants to get the 7am session with awards at 9pm at night! (lower levels, numbers drop level 7/8 and up so more reasonable, but still several sessions).This number would not be in the same session. What they do is say have all the level 4 sessions, which might be as few as 2 sessions, or there might be 4 or 5 at big comps like State clubs. Then when all the sessions are done all the level 4 gymnasts would come back for awards. You always hope the kids will be in the last session so you don't have to make another trip.
This even happens with MAG at the bigger comps. Our boys will compete in the morning then have to go back at night when everyone in their division is done for awards.

That is a lot! The biggest group my daughter has competed against was 32 or 33, I believe. 100?!? Wow!Wow! What state are you in? I guessing NSW? The most I have ever seen in an award group over here is 25. DD had 14 in her group at states!
Wow that's crazy! What do you do if you don't live near the venue?! Never going to complain about my state again...
