Good luck to all those that are getting ready to start this crazy, frustrating, fun, tearful, goal reaching, anxiety inducing process. I hope everyone gets the calls they want and maybe a few surprises (in a good way) that they weren't expecting. Remember if you don't get a call/text tomorrow...
Its only 57 sec? The intro is kinda rough, just sounds like the needle plopped in the middle of track. I prefer a bit of a smoother opening. Otherwise, no concern about vocals. The transition about middle works but perhaps could get tweaked a little more for smoothness?
Cant say that I do, but this may actually be where some of those recruiting services might really be helpful. Otherwise, its about getting in front of coaches, email, email, email, videos and competition results.

I guess I would ask, what do you think you should be getting from the current gym/coaching (and I don't mean that to sound sassy)? 12 is often a crossroads point in many gymnastics journies. Definitely see a lot of girls in this age range that leave the sport. Are you, or more specifically...
Here's some background information "Differences in budget mean differences in reality in NCAA gymnastics". Bottom line, decoupling big-time sports from the non-revenue sports would be net-negative for these sports.
And if you leave that decision up to a college that has now decoupled its "professional" program and is no longer obligated to support the non-revenue sports, do you think its possible they wont? I am sure some will, but many wont, and those programs would be cut and less opportunities.

And when was the last time you saw Brown football play on prime-time national television on Saturday night? Yes, the Ivies are unique as well as the lower divisions. They don't have the sport palaces, the armies of support staff, etc. This is all about the major conferences. The genie is out...
