I know there are a few other parents here with gymnasts in D2 and 3 as well as Ivy. just trying to get a sense of what other colleges are doing for allowing parents to go to the meets. my d's is only allowing students, no parents, at leastt for the next couple of weeks and then will re-evaluate...
Is it possible to change gyms right before meet season? Will the new gym suggest gymnast simply train and sit this meet season out or can the gymnast compete given that choreography, etc is from the previous gym? How does this work?
Hi! I am currently a xcel silver gymnast. I’ve noticed that I’ve been way ahead of my team as I’m more serious than them. I’ve already competed 1 meet and got a 37.792 AA.
I have my kip, front tuck, bw on beam, clear hip, round off bt, back tuck front tuck beam dismount, and front handspring...
My son just came home from practice and described what appears to be a recalibration of MAG levels for the 2021-2022 season. In summary, all levels 7 and below are moving down 1 number...so instead of L4, 5, 6 & 7, it’ll be L3, 4, 5 & 6. A level 4 routine now will be the L3 routine next...
Since Covid cases are on the rise, is anyone still having a season? We just received our schedule yesterday, has a bunch of in house meets and three (1 is optional) out of state
Hope everyone is fairing well. Curious if anyone has heard what a 2020-21 competitive season in Ontario might look like? Or has thoughts on what's even possible? Will Gymnastics Canada host events this year?
We just found out our gym is planning only 4 in-house meets, some sanctioned with Judges in hopes of then attending State, Regionals and Nationals (they don’t want to risk any Covid exposure and have to quarantine per coach). DD is a Senior, third year L10 set for D3 or walk-on D1 (on the cusp...
On the topic of meet schedules, my daughter's gym is considering trying one NGA meet for higher level optionals. One reason is curiosity about how the NGA meet will go. Another is the possibility of qualifying for post-season for both NGA and USAG and having flexibility to go one route, the...
Just read Iowa cutting the men's team. Along with men and women swimming and diving, men's tennis. I am so upset and devastated for them. We have cheered and gone to their meets for years. I am truly worried for men's gymnastics.
So I am in NJ and Governor just announced that schools will need to find a way to maintain social distance AND be able to provide at least some in classroom time at the same time. So it has me thinking..... do you guys think that the 20-21 competition season will be canceled?
Can meets still...
I know the situation continues to evolve and re-openings differ from state to state, but what do you think next season might look like? Will the comp season be delayed by a few months? Could the whole competition season be cancelled and maybe kids will just train, or do you expect/hope the...
Hello! I’ve been lurking and learning for some time, but this is my first post :)
My daughter is 6 and this year has been in an invite only elite class for her age level. She’s had a good year, got her standing backhandspring (though it still needs work), and has been very motivated to work...
What is the likelihood there will a fall compulsory season? We typically start competition in late August. It seems like it will be difficult given the idea that social distancing will not fully be lifted for a number of months.
I know there are various reasons in general to move JO optionals to the fall, but I’m thinking now might be just the time to do it. Regardless of how this thing plays out, it will likely take the athletes some time to get their skills back, and maybe it would be safer to have the next season...
alright coaches; have you heard from your state/regional chairs regarding possibility of state/regional/nationals being cancelled due to the continued coronavirus outbreak? especially troublesome given:
Norcal State: california bay area
Region 1 Regionals: california bay area
Westerns...
I feel like I am the opposite of a CGM. I am struggling to muster enthusiasm for meet season. This is dd's 6th season and I'm just... over it I guess? I love my dd and I'm so proud of her and all she's accomplished. But there are times, especially recently, when I wish she would move on and...
Optional season is about to start for many of our members. What are you and or your gymnast excited about in the new year or season? Compulsory season has just finished, what skills are your gymnasts ready to train hard?
Vetran parents, please join in about your hopes for the new season or your...
Lily closed out her season by competing in the HOPES championship meet on Friday. She took home the gold on floor, bronze on vault and the silver in the all around with a 51.2. This year has been full of ups and downs. She started the season with the goal of qualifying junior elite but after not...
Wow, it's been awhile since I've posted here. Just wanted to let everyone know that Lily qualified for nationals again, we are so proud!! She is still in the Junior A age group, she competed in region 4 regionals and came away with the beam, floor and all around titles and placed 2nd on vault...
