USAG is doing it's usual amazing job of live streaming much of worlds, including the qualifying rounds of the other major teams.
We really should be messaging them to say thanks for the great coverage of events.
My DD goes to a year round school -they get about 7 weeks off for summer. Our gym (as well as the other gyms in the area) has a 9 week summer schedule -so it starts 2 weeks before DD gets out of school for the summer. It's not a problem this year as DD's practice starts after school hours -but...
I was wondering how my DD's summer schedule is compared to other L6/7 gymnasts. Just to clarify, all of the girls already qualified for L7, but their skills at the end of the summer will determine their comp level for next season. They will be practicing 4 days per week for a total of 18hrs per...
Can anyone give me some good exercises and skills to do with a grade 2, nearly grade 3 (less than an 1/8 of an inch more to make it a full tear) sprained ankle? It's the middle of meet season so I don't want to stop practicing. I was provided a lace up ankle brace by my orthopedic to wear for 6...
My daughter started recreational classes last summer, and she's doing really well. We've been told it's likely she'll make the team when they do evaluations later this spring. She's super excited.
Our gym has the practice schedules posted for teams, but the effective date is right when school...
Do your gyms decrease, increase or retain same schedule over holiday break when kids are out of school? Our gym cuts way back. I've always thought it would be an opportunity for some great workouts with school not getting in way. I other hand, maybe coaches feel like gymnasts need some downtime.
I would really like input from other parents as well as coaches!
My 7-year old DD and another 8 y/o girl were moved to the level 3 (from 2) mid-summer
after scoring 36's at our in house JO. The girls were thrilled - and have both performed
VERY well this season - 35. - 37.5 -- my issue however...
What makes a great Elite program? Whether you are a gymnast, parent, coach, gym owner, or Ranch aficionado, please share your experience with regard to hours trained, coaching expectations, gymnast expectations, overtraining versus undertraining, et cetera. Big interest for us is, If a program...
Since we just moved to a new town both DDs started a new school last week. Older DD was assigned to choir as her elective. Today the choir "contract" came home stating when the concerts would be (there are 5) and stating that students who miss a concert would be docked two full letter grades...
Hello all I am new to the forum. My dd is 6 1/2 started team in February and her coach wants her to train for level 4, but she will test level 3 this year due to age. She started in kindernast at 3 and we slowly got "sucked" into the competitive track, but she loves gym and we enjoy the...
We got our fall training schedule for the upcoming year and one of the nights falls on the same night as our scouting group. So bummed. We have avoided this for a couple years now and knew it would happen at some point. My daughter is sad but still choose gymnastics.
Does anyone know where I can find a schedule of competition for tumbling at World's? All I know is that it is tomorrow. I would love to keep up with it if possible.
So for all of you ladies inquiring about the National Stream cup qual in base Borden:
CPN Aspires and elites both compete first flight on Sunday morning the 17th (7:30am registration). There are 14 aspires and 8 elites listed.
It will be DD's first meet with scores.... so exciting for her!
Hi there!
Does anyone have any advice/experience asking their teacher/school for an adjusted schedule? My DD (second grade) has a fantastic opportunity to up-train with a small group of promising peers and a great coach at the gym one afternoon a week. As this is a cross-level group, the only...
If you cannot go you can still watch the whole event. It will be live streamed and some of the meet will be televised. Amazing how far USAG has come with promoting gymnasts on the internet. I love it.
