    WAG Inform college coach about scratching meets

    A couple of college coaches asked my daughter to send her meet schedule which she did a while back, but now it looks like she may only compete one event or scratch the whole first meet due to an injury. Both coaches are out of town and neither indicated that they were attending the meet. They...

    WAG When/if to talk to coach about college?

    My DD was level 8 last year so will be either level 8 or 9 in 7th grade this upcoming year. I know the coach would generally love to get girls to college gymnastics so I assume she is moving them along as well as she can given their skills. Is there any point sitting down with the coach and...

    Parents College recruiting process...part of the problem?

    I just received an interesting e-mail. FYI this e-mail is coming from NCSA, "Next College Student Athlete" which as far as I can tell is a for profit college sports recruiting firm. (And, fyi, they do NOT include gymnastics as one of the sports they recruit for.) We are on their email list only...

    WAG College meet question

    I've been to the NCAA championships, but never a regular meet. How does it work with only two teams? Do they only do events at one time? or all four, and the teams are split up? Also - about how long do they last? Thanks for any info!

    WAG College gymnastics

    WAG College gymnastics and homeschooling

    Anyone have an idea what percentage of girls that compete in college home-schooled through high school? Is it a majority so that they have enough hours to train or do many do traditional high school?

    WAG Do college gymnasts learn new skills?

    Do college gymnasts learn new skills or do they just maintain the skills they already have. And if they don't learn new skills does it get boring?
