    Parents NCAA Leo

    My DD likes the Arizona State Sundevils team. GK doesn’t have their Leo and I haven’t found any other brand that carries them. (Ozone or chalk warrior) eBay has a few but not our size and kinda weary buying a Leo on eBay anyway. Any other Leo brands out there yall can think of that might...

    Parents Deduction Question

    My DD is working on a skill that is a requirement but doesn’t have it by herself yet. Close but still having a spot. If she receives a spot during a meet that would be a .5 deduction. If she doesn’t compete the skill would be a .5 deduction because it’s a requirement. Would you compete with a...

    Parents Conditioning

    What does conditioning look like at your gym? Our gym focuses mostly on legs and core. No arms, no ankle stability, etc. For the past year there has been an uptick in injuries and I am wondering if the possible lack of conditioning might be an underlying issue. I know it is may not been the...

    Parents Medical Information

    Our gym wants notes but open communication is valid as well. Our gym is small and our coach is a PT at well at a hospital who know most vendors. As far as X-ray - radiologist read those as well as the specialist so u less a coach is that then I wouldn’t feel the need to give them Are they...

    Parents Xcel Sapphire

    My DD is deciding to stay in the xcel program for many reasons but believes she will get further in the program than JO. She is 15 and will be training platinum next year. Age is another reason even though she could petition but she likes her coach, her teammates and where she is. If she...

    Parents When / How long is your season?

    Our xcel begins Dec and goes to May depending on State and Regional qualifications. If not qualified it would end in April. We have traveled in the past but a lot of our team doesn’t go out of state. This year there is one out of state meet outside the normal Regional meet. Only a handful of...

    Parents how do we stand out hosting first meet?

    Kids like to put things on their water bottles now. So stickers would be fun. Giving something that will be used multiple times vs a one time has always been bigger for us. Example - we sells more cups with our meet info on it than a flower to give at the end. As far from a parent...

    Parents Mock meets

    Our gym is smaller and they only held a mock meet for levels and excluded xcel. Which could have been done given our size of xcel. I mean less than a handful of Golds, 2 Platinum, less than a dozen silvers. But idk I think I’m annoyed that I it could have been done and not sure why it wasn’t...

    Parents Mock meets

    Does your gym only hold mock meets for only one program or if they do hold a mock meet do they hold it for both programs?

    Parents Petitioning

    Does anyone have experience petitioning to go from Xcel to JO? Age wise, she is allowed to go to Level 6 or 7 from what I’m reading. Her coach mentioned it before but we left a pin on it. I wouldn't purse it until she made the RBHS connection consistently anyway.
