    Parents Gyms in Carlsbad, CA

    Coastal 100%. We rotated with their girls many times and they are so supportive of each other and seem to have a great attitude. I know a gym mom from there and she has only had great things to say about the program.

    Parents College Recruiting

    I highly recommend this FB group. My golfer son is only in 8th grade, so we have lots of time, but there's a TON of great information. I also bought her book. https://www.facebook.com/groups/parentsofhsathleteswantingtoplayincollege/?multi_permalinks=873137606718899

    USAG headscratcher ...

    My question is what about areas that don't have states/regionals? I'm not confident that some of the qualifying meets will happen.

    Parents Leotard Companies

    My daughter's favorites consistently are Snowflake and KBee. She is tall with a long torso and some brands just don't fit her right.

    Women UCLA joins the college scandals

    It's not just gymnastics: "In 2014, Link Removed quoted Kondos Field as saying she suggested the school’s golf coach add the son of former Bruins gymnastics coach Jerry Tomlinson. He hired Kondos Field as an assistant coach at UCLA in 1983. Tomlinson’s son, Cory, was listed on UCLA’s golf roster...

    Parents Two travel meets

    We always try and make a mini-vacation out of travel gym meets or my son's travel golf tournaments. It's a nice combo of vacation/competition. The golf tournaments are a bit different b/c we choose which ones he does as opposed to a set gym schedule. We also live in So Cal, and there is SO...

    Parents Skipping Level 3

    A slight variation - my 8 year old daughter competed Xcel bronze last season and decided to switch to JO. She was put in level 3 initially and that lasted all of one practice before the head coach approached me and said he was moving her up to level 4. It was absolutely the right move for her...
