    Off Topic Athletes/Coaches taking a knee during the anthem at meets

    Lately, the question of when and where and how it is appropriate to protest social issues has come up in many sports, most notably (but not only) the NFL. I expect it is just a matter of time before this question must be addressed in the gymnastics world, so while this is a politically charged...

    Women non-sanctioned meets?

    Okay, so I have heard a few times of kids competing JO levels at non-sanctioned meets. How would that even work? How would you get judges? Why would a gym choose to attend a non-sanctioned meet. I don't know if that happens in my area, as all the meets I know of are listed on our states USAG...

If you haven't seen my thread about how her coach is making her stop doing her harder skills although he said form had nothing to...

    Parents Making money at a meet

    The coaches not attending awards thread got me interested in how much a gym can make hosting a meet. I have been told that the meet DD gym hosts can make enough money that 3 or 4 months of Team Fees are waived. I researched on USAG Region 7 website and the MD USAG web site. I learned a few...

    Parents First Year On Team, First Meet… At Her Old Gym

    As usual, I had planned to write a short and concise post and ended up writing a book :D. Sorry in advance. I just received some team information :) (How cool is that?! Team! & Information!) Before they can compete, each of the new team girls (including my dd) has to pass skills tests in each...

    Parents VERY first meet tomorrow! Nerves and a question

    My 6-year-old has her very first meet tomorrow! It feels like it's been forever working up to this, since she started rec Kinder class at 4. So crazy to compare, since my 5-year-old DD starts her second season of t-ball, and after 2 weeks of practice they will already be playing games! With how...

    Women Illinois L3 State Meet is super LATE this year...

    So last season it was end of march/first week of April, this year it isn't until the first weekend in May! Meaning they have like a month and a half from their last qualifying meet until state. Seems weird doesn't it? The rest of the levels have their state meets all in March....anyone know why...

    Women "Meet the New Elites" - From cheer straight to L10

    I saw this post on ChalkWarrior and am totally fascinated by the story of Laney Madsen. I don't know much about cheer, and can understand how a great cheerleader could go straight to being great on floor, but how would you get L10 bar, beam and vault skills in just one year? Pretty incredible...

    Women Chicago Beach Meet

    Just wondering if anyone (or their kids) has done this meet before? DD is doing it for the first time next weekend. It's completely just for fun, and it's on the beach on Lake Michigan.... For girls it's a team of 3 gymnasts each, and it's by age group, not by level, so they can do whatever...

    Women Adult Gymnastics Meet!

    I am super proud of my fellow adult gymnasts in my class. This weekend they are competing Xcel Platinum. All these ladies are 30+ years old (we do not need to get specific when it comes to ages :p) and two of them haven’t completed in over 2 decades! We only practice once a week, I’m impressed...

    Parents Taking breaks after meets are done

    Hi, Wondering if any parents of optionals can weigh in on benefits of a scheduled break every year after meet season is over in terms of injury prevention. I know the kids want to uptrain but many other sports with high hours do seem to suggest a break at some point in an otherwise year round...

    First US meet

    We're testing 'international' waters in a few weeks, attending our first US meet. Any suggestions on what to expect, aside from exchange rate sticker shock?
