    WAG Will new seniors be eligible for 2021 olympics?

    With the olympics postponed, I wonder if this means a new class of elites will now be age eligible? To whom might this apply? So many things to ponder and speculate on these days!

    Postponement of Olympics - how do you think it will affect US WAG?

    Do you think team selection will now be delayed roughly a year? Will all the Olympic hopefuls will stick with it another year? Will they move the minimum age cutoff to 2021? Who will be newly 16 and eligible if so?

    Is anyone else excited for the Olympics? Who are you rooting for for team USA??

    Obviously Simone Biles is a lock to get a spot but who are your favorites to make the women’s team? Have you been following any of the other gymnasts and hoping they get one of the spots? I’m looking forward to watching the American Cup next month and of course the Olympic trials!

    WAG Olympic Trials tickets

    Does anyone have the scoop on the 2020 Olympic trials tickets? Right now they are only selling full session packages. Will they open up individual sessions at some point?

    WAG 2020 Olympics

    It's a dreary rainy day. Who do you think has the chops to represent the USA in 2020? Will anyone from 2016 besides Simone have a chance?

    Off Topic Positive Gymnastics/Olympic Role Models

    Spinning off the SJ and Aly threads. Who are the former gymnasts or other Olympic sport role models that you most admire and hope your DD or DS will notice and why? During the Olympics, I made it a point to talk about Katie Ledecky. She is one of the best swimmers of all time, a student at...

    Olympic coverage question

    Does anyone know if live coverage of the women's team final on Tuesday at 3:00pm will be shown on television (any NBC station)? We had planned a team viewing party for the afternoon, but I can only find it listed to be shown during prime time coverage at 8pm. Please help .

    Olympic lineup???

    4 up for qualifications and only 2 can qualify for all around and 2 for event finals. The two all arounders will definitely be Simone and either gabby (boo), Laurie, or Aly. Will they let all three compete to battle it out for the second spot or will they sit the girls out on their weaker...
