    MAG Ball sport optional boys

    My optional Gymnast is finally old enough to play modified sports. He wants to do a fall sport and a spring sport. Any advice on how to handle both? It would be so much easier if they could somehow incorporate a ball into gymnastics!

    Parents Boys

    My dd is 15, and has never had time for boys and crushes and all that the dating world entails, since she has gym 6 days a week. She liked gym more than boys anyway. Then we switched to a gym with a large MAG team. Suddenly, there is a boy at the gym who has caught her eye, and she gets to...

    MAG Boys camp question

    My 9 year old son will be going to Flip Fest next month and I could use some advice from parents who boys have gone to camp before. I feel silly even asking, but I am a bit worried about how he will manage at camp ;) My son would probably be totally okay (and it might not even occur to him, ha!)...

    Parents Question for parents of boys....

    This might be a little tmi and my son would be mad if he knew I was asking but it's driving me crazy.... What kind of underwear is best? It seems like my son is always messing with his while in the gym. We don't see it at home so I know it's not a wrong size issue. Thanks!

    Parents Boys Results on MMS & the Top 100 Lists

    Woops! I just went to check the Top 100 and see if my DD had been bumped off yet, and the rankings are all messed up from boys scores being added (since their scores are so much higher). They bumped all the girls off. Like this, for example...

    MAG When do boys 'get it?'

    My son is 8 (almost 9). He has done gym for almost 3 years, pre-T, level 4 and level 5. Sometimes, I swear he just doesn't have what it takes to be competitive. He is not a terrible gymnast, he has a lot of his level 6 skills even. For some reason though, when he competes, he is a mess. Will he...

    Parents (Boys) Gym in Japan

    Out of pure curiosity, I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with any famous gyms in Japan that focus on boys' competitive gymnastics. My husband is from Japan, and I often think about how fun it might be to spend the summer there. Since Japan's men's team is strong, it could be a good opportunity...

    MAG What boys team is "CTC Gymnastics" in Colorado?

    Semi random... Was surfing around some former national team listings and came across the gym name "CTC". I was thinking this was just the Colorado Training Center where senior team resident members like John Orozco train, but then I noticed there were junior members listed in past years, and so...

    With the boys' competition season coming to an end soon, I am looking for a new team for my son. I have been looking most closely at Capital Gymnastics NTC in Burke and Apollo Gymnastics in Woodbridge. Both seem to have strong programs and, not unimportant given the traffic in my area, are...

    DS is six and is doing his second year of a one hour rec class. At his age he spends half his time in class pretending to be a Ninja or rescuing people from the "pit monster", but he also really loves the gymnastics. Now that his older sister is on the Xcel team he's been asking me when he can...

    My 2 boys are asking for compression shirts for practice. There has to be a more cost effective option than 40-70$ on GK and GK under armour. Are there are cheaper sites?

    Coaches Help with 4-5 yr old Boys class

    I've been asked to coach a young beginning boys class once a week for an hour. I can't not seem to keep the boys attention no matter what I do! Boys are so much different than girls. I don't even know where to beginning. In short the entire hour is spent yelling the boys names to even listen to...

    Mom of 2 gym team boys

    And a toddler aged girl, who had best pick a cheaper sport. As a family, 2015-16 will be our 5th competition season. I know so little about gymnastics I am not even dangerous. But, I guess I know more than I did 5 years ago!

    Spin off from another thread. I am wondering what is the "normal" ratio of number of girls team (ish - could include team track, TOPS, etc) to boys team members around the country. I know that in any successful gym the recreational program will be the largest and the place a gym makes the...

    Parents ? about Boys gymnastics progression

    So I know that "mens" gymnastics peaks a bit later, but when do boys start training/competing? My son is 5 (April birthday) and loves gymnastics (we did basketball camp last week and he was doing cartwheels on the side lines) and wants to start doing twice a week (and recognizes that his...
