We are so excited for this first meet. It's a Judges Cup and it's pretty tough as fas as scores go. Olivia competed at this same meet last year. The good part is that they go 100% AA so everyone gets atleast one medal.
This is also our first meet with the new gym and I am hoping it will be a...
Ahhhhh the surprises of a new gym, a new level and a new season! Everytime I go into my daughter's cubby mail box after practice, it's like Christmas! So, we are doing a meet next weekend! Good news, my daughter is doing all FOUR events! While I did not think she was ready, coach said she has...
So we had our first meet on Saturday. More geared towards fun and identifying coaching opportunities, and to let some of the newer girls see what they will be getting into in a month or so.
Midget looked really good in warmups on beam, floor, and bars. Vault though, well lets just say her run...
The midget has her first meet tomorrow morning for level 3. Luckily this is a 'fun' meet hosted by our gym but there will be other gyms there. I think I am way more nervous than she is.
Hopefully it will go well. Though it might not. Her run for the vault is comical at best and that darn mill...
Anyone here attending Chow's Meet in Des Moines, IA on OCt 3-4, 2009?
My daughter's team is competing there. Wondering If we may see any of you?
It is getting close and my family is getting excited.

I have closed last seasons thread, so we can begin anew for this season. Feel free to post your meets here. Maybe we can have many more Chalkbucket encounters of the funnest kind!:D
I've got a group of new competitive kids this year.
What do you take on the floor with you, as a coach, at a meet? What do you consider your athletes' responsibility?
I've already told them they need water, and already know that even though they're supposed to have their hair back, I'm...
I have my first level 6 meet coming up on August 29th. The good thing is that there are only 16 girls in my session (levels 6 & 8). This meet is actually a mobility meet before the season starts. I am so nervous! I really want to score out of level 6 and if i do my coach told me that i can...

Floor 2nd place
Vault tied for 1st place
Bars 1st place
AA 1st place!!!!!!!:D
Since it is the off-season, I thought I'd report on my little DD's in-house meet.:)
Here is a little background...
She is 5 years old and is on the L2 team at our gym plus doing TOPS training. She was invited to be on the L2 team and TOPS by the gym's head coach who noticed "something...
Forgot to post this before, but I am competing in this next weekend...
Empire Masters
I think they still take entries, it just might cost a little more since it would be a late entry.
It's judged on modified level 8 rules.
VERY VERY new to this.
We'll be starting meets at the end of Aug. I believe. Our gym has not given us a schedule and I need to know if I pretty much need to clear my work schedule for the weekends!!!
USAG (we're in Texas).
I was just wondering the other day...I have NO idea what these meets are...
So I have been working on scrapbooking my gymnastics stuff, and I have kept track of most of my scores through out the years. I have three more seasons worth of scores to scrapbook, and I'm running out of ideas!
For level 4 I printed the scores on a little square for each event and glued just...
Does your gym make you go to every meet they enter or can you pick and chose the number your child goes to?
How many do you go to and do you take advantage of each meet or allow for some time off from meets?
DD had her L6 State meet this past weekend. She had a great time and is happy to be done competing these routines. Hopefully, on to level 7. She had a really good day except for bars, her nemisis.
First event was bars, and she fell on the squat on, but other than that it was pretty good. 7.2...
I had another good meet. I was technically in the USAIGC 18+ age division, but they lumped me with 15+ since there were no other over 18s, which was fine cause then I could actually place possibly, and not just get an all around medal as the 'champion' of one person in my age group, like last...
Hi all ,
I have been on CB for about 6 months I think. My DD is 11yr. old level 8. Although I own a photography studio, I am not a photographer. I find it a real challenge to take good pictures of my DD during meets. With the no flash rule and very challenging lighting conditions. I started a...

Vault - 9.10 - 2nd place - Silver!!!
Bars - 8.90 - 2nd place - Silver!!!
Beam - 8.20 - 5th place
Floor - 7.60 - Eh, we know this is NOT her best event...
