I am currently at a YMCA as a level 6. Unlike some YMCA's, we have a full spring floor, a vault table, 3 high beams, 2 low beams, and 2 sets of bars. I get pretty "good" scores and usually win all around at my meets. The problem is, I don't know if I really deserve the scores. I've heard about...
Not sure if anyone will know the correct answer, as I have not been able to find much information out on this. At our gym , we have a girl on my daughter's team that never qualified for level 6 state. And by not qualifying I mean by alot ( AA-26,27). Somehow though she is competing this season...
My daughter had a meet today. Personally, she did okay, coming in 5th all-around. She missed each of her goals, but had another solid and consistent overall performance. It looked like their unbeaten streak as a team was coming to an end today- in fact I thought they would come in 3rd. Long...
I'm particularly interested in getting thoughts from the coaches, but would be interested in anyone's experiences. DD just completed her first two L7 meets. She did pretty well -- easily qualified for state the first meet and AA went up a full point the second meet. She now has a 6 week break...
I am a new member here. My daughter is a first year L4 (7yo). She has had 3 meets so far. At the first one she had a 34.65AA, second meet she had a 34.2AA and at the last meet she had a 34AA. After the first meet everyone including the coaches were talking about how awesome her...
Do the scores to qualify for states change each year? And are they the same for all states?
Specifically, I'm wondering what score is needed to qualify for L6 states in PA. Is there somewhere to find this info online?
Thanks!
I have about 15 team girls who are competing Xcel this coming Spring. I just started coaching them and their last coach mostly had them as a rec group, so they are not very...polished, to say the least. I'm afraid of what their scores may be in the spring. I'm used to coaching JO, and I was...
At my dd's meet this weekend her score was given to the wrong child in error because they mixed up who was who. I brought this to the attention of the meet director and it was corrected after the original medalling. She was called to the podium a 2nd time to correct the error. My dd is a L3, and...
Has anyone else had this experience? It seems like when we go to the bigger meets with more competitive gyms, the scoring is actually more forgiving. On the flip side, this past weekend we attended a much smaller meet, with less gyms, and gyms that had less notoriety, and the scoring was...
My little one had another meet today. She scored a 36.1 AA, but I felt much better. Her focus was a lot better and she was poised to beat last week's AA before she had and uncharacteristic error and over-rotated on her front mill circle. She's progressing and I'm happy with how it's going...
So who will be the first to test drive the new boys' JO system? Anyone have any meets coming up soon so that those of us who won't be starting until December can hear about what this is going to look like?
And on another subject, good luck to everyone who's getting ready for Future Stars!:)
A bunch of parents were talking last night around the gym. One mom commented that judging is much harsher with older age groups than with younger ones. Her daughter is 13 and competing level 5. She said that judging is much harder because they expect more with the senior age groups than the...
Just curious since we are heading into meet season.
Is level 6 & 7 vault scored the same as level 5 vault?
For example, if a gymnast is a level 5 and scores a 9.0 would that same vault get the same score if she were level 6 or 7? Are the deductions the same or greater in level 6 and then even...
Hey everyone my little lady just got moved to what our gym calls level 2 team. I went to the first workout and sat and watched, wowza, some of the moms were kinda mean. Anyways they kept asking why my daughter moved up to level 2 if she had not tested out of level 1 and I just answered back...
Just a quick question - for State TOPS testing, do you all find out what your daughter's scores were (how many points, etc)?
Our gym says they won't tell us so we shouldn't ask - but I don't think that's right! Don't we have a right to know how they did?
This is my daughters first year doing...
i know that the gymnastics score formula is (start value+execution)
whats the highest execution points you can have?
because i know you cant score a perfect 10 anymore
Another level 8 meet in the books. I think we are nearing the end. She got her highest beam and bars for the year! Bars got her 1st place. I was so proud of all the improvement I saw there. Beam looked great and only one fall, lol. It has been a rough beam year at meets, great in practice...
I am wondering if most gymnasts, gyms, coaches, or parents prefer to score higher and place higher or just get skills and keep moving up levels?
Our gym does a little of both. My dd says she doesn't care much about scores and just wants to move up levels. She is not much of a performer so doesnt...
I honestly don't know how much is the same or different with US and canada scoring, but I know we have some fellow Canucks here who might be able to help.
Some of the the Pre-novice National girls went to a meet 2 weeks ago (dd not quite there yet) and the coach posted the results sheet. I was...
