    Parents Differences between L4 and L5 vault

    Can someone please tell me the differences between L4 and L5 vault? I'm guessing maybe they have different minimum height requirements for vault tables, but I'm not sure at all... And am I correct to assume the minimum height requirement for a L4 vault table is 100cm? My daughter is tiny 8 yr...

    Parents Age requirement for level 4 - confused

    Hi, My daughter, whom just started gym this past fall is supposed to move from pre-team to level 4 after summer. She just turned 6 this summer. I was told by a coach that she cannot compete because you must be 7 in order to compete level 4. I do see this same info reflected on the USAG...

    WAG Level 4 through 7 various combinations, benefits/disadvantages of each

    I frequently read on here that level 5 and 6 are very similar but one is compulsory and one optional and that many gyms do level 4 then 6 (score out of 5) while others do level 4, then go 5 to 7, skipping 6. Our gym has traditionally done level 5 in the fall and then 7 the following spring (ie...

    WAG Level 4 to level 8?!?!?

    So let me just start this old my saying this really isn't any of my business and I'm really just wonder how it would be done. There is a girl at my daughters gym who sometimes works in the same group as my eldest daughter. She is 12 I believe. Last summer just before the season started she...

    Parents The 50% cut post level 4

    So to my amazement only 1/2 our level 4 team will continue to optionals. 1 is going to xcel gold, 1 quit, 1 repeating 4. So we are now down to 3 level 6 girls. It makes me so sad but the one repeating does not want to put in the work and neither did the one that quit. My bean has always had to...

    WAG From bronze to level 4

    My DD just competed her first season Xcel Bronze. She did very well. She now wants to jump over Level 3 and go to Level 4. I think that she has the skills needed but am wondering if this would be a good move or not. Does she need to spend a season learning more about form and precise moves on...

    Parents Level 4 State

    My DD competed over the weekend, and it gives me great joy and pride to say she took first AA not only in her age group but across all of them. She got a new PR on her beam as well! She's had quite the impressive season, having taken first at every meet this season as well. I'm one proud...

    WAG Concerns re future potential level 4 child

    I'm been reading this forum for 3 years and it's been so helpful. This is my first post and I hope some of the very knowledgeable parents, coaches, and gymnasts can provide some feedback. Sorry in advance for the long post... Daughter started level 3 age 6 - was pushed onto team instead of...

    WAG L4 floor help -- Judges or coaches -- anyone willing to look?

    State meet is just around the corner, and DD is frustrated with floor scores. Anyone (judges, coaches or experienced parents) willing to take a look and share thoughts/feedback? I can PM her highest scoring and lowest scoring floor routines of the season. Thanks!

    WAG Skills test question for level 4

    Other than the actual skills required for level 4 competition, what else does your gym include in their decision as to whether a kid will move from lvl 3 to lvl 4? Like what sort of strength/conditioning or score minimum, etc. Do they require the child to do a certain number of leg lifts...

    WAG Level 4 Bars ?

    So, I see on CB frequently that the casts in the L4 bar routine are aupposed to be to horizontal. Can someone explain exactly what that means? Does it mean that the gymnast's whole body has to be above an imaginary line drawn at bar height parallel to the floor? Or they have to have their...

    Parents Level 4 question

    Hi All, My daughter is Level 4 (just turned 9) and just finished up her meet season with a 35.5 at States. Her coach just informed us she'd like to move her over from the JO program to Prep Op. The reason being she states "she's not focused enough and she's not sure she has the dedication it...

    WAG Level 4 floor question - your opinion?

    Short version: Do you think the level 4 floor routine looks better when the arm motions are smooth and flowing/graceful or sharp and precise? Long version: My dd has 2 floor/beam coaches this season and they seem to disagree about how the floor routine should best be performed. They coach the...

    Parents L4 beam

    Can someone give me an idea on what this might score in a meet? I know there are a few places where she could kick (lever) higher and with an straighter leg. Her leaps and jump can be higher. I'm just curious. This looks so much better then last year (repeating L4) and just wanted a...

    Parents Level 4 and 5 being pushed to make level 6

    Our gym is relatively new and has not had many girls progress thew the jo program. Most of the girls last year competed silver last year and a few moved on to level 4. At there first level 4 meet most of them scored I. The 32-33 range and were quickly moved to level 5 where most of them...

    WAG score of 4.5 on level 4 floor?

    I was going through meet scores and saw that one very laid back gym in my area had one girl score a 4.5 on floor in level 4. I'm curious what one would need to do to get such a low score. Forget the entire routine or just miss multiple skills?
