    NCAA Thoughts on player compensation, roster limits, House settlement, etc.

    This sounds good until it comes to Men's gymnastics. THe travel can be tough with only 15 teams. This is why Cal/Stanford compete against each other so much.

    NCAA Thoughts on player compensation, roster limits, House settlement, etc.

    Parents Balancing gym with school

    My son had an alternate schedule. He went to school for "zero" hour, then left at 12 every day for practice. (2-6). That being said, he did not take AP or honors classes. He was still high achieving and did well, but I really wanted him to be able to also enjoy high school. He attended...

    Men region realignment

    I was wondering how that would go. Our state is also in R2 (new to R2) and it is such a large area. I hope that they get things figured out and we do see the increased resources.

    Parents Rides before competing?

    Have fun and ride some rides. One year at nationals, we did not expect my son to make finals. We were in Orlando and had purchased Universal tickets for the day after prelims. He made finals. We went to Universal. He competed the next day and was 10th aa. He remembers more about that day...

    Gymnasts April Fools Day Prank Ideas

    one year the coach convinced our boys team that they had to start doing their floor routine to music. That was a good one. The next year he told the boys that beam was being added as an event for them and they had to learn it. You could turn it on the girls and say that pommel or rings were...
