Lots of State Meets going on right now... talk about them here!
This thread is for ALL... MAG... WAG... Developmental (DP)... Xcel... etc.
Tell us about you or your athlete at the State Meet.
Hi all! Apologies as I know this is unlikely to get much traction here but I can no longer find the Australia forum.
It seems that GymNSW has added a National and State stream option. Just curious if anyone knows much about it? Is it a formal thing where you have to be registered as a State or...
I feel like with the USAG season changing to just having one giant Level 3-10 state meet in the spring this year that we will have some interesting turnout situations arise. All the top gymnasts in SoCal usually compete 4 or 5 states in the fall and then jump to Level 6 or 7 in the spring. If...
My daughter is a first year level 10. The bars have been a struggle for a variety of reasons. She lost her bars coach in January, and it has been very difficult to get consistent bars coach the remainder of the season. She is very stressed about the state meet. Her other three events have...
Could someone please explain to me how these work. I’m new to excel but have competed igc before i moved to region 7. How do you qualify for both, if someone knows info about both excel and igc, is regionals like worlds? Is state comps similar. are the state and regional meets normally held at...
We are closing on a house in a different state in a couple weeks. We’ve been planning on staying where we are until our daughter’s state meet in mid-May. But it recently occurred to us that maybe we don’t have to let gymnastics rule our lives. So we’re considering the possibility of, you know...
My daughter competed 3 spring 2022 level 5 meets. Does she need to compete level 5 in the fall to qualify for states if she already qualified in all 3 20222 spring meets? Would rather focus on optionals training in fall. There was no state meet in the spring FYI, unlike during the 2021 when...
My daughter was recently invited to join the TOPs program at our gym and she's really excited about it. We live in NYC and are staying here for the next year, but we're planning a move after that. We are somewhat flexible with location, but need to stay within an hour or two of the city. We'd...
Hi, I just had my state meet a few days ago and I am wondering if I made the state team for regionals. I made the state team last year and hoping to make it again. I am wondering if anyone knows where to look for that information?
Hi everyone! New member and gym mom here, and I’m so grateful to have found this site. My daughter qualified for the State Meet (she’s XCEL Bronze) and I was just wondering how it differs from other meets. Is it just a larger group of kids so tougher competition? Do they still separate by age...
Yesterday was USAIGC States for Puma Jr. It was the first meet (besides two in house meets that were sanctioned) she‘s competed in almost 18 months. She broke her ankle in January 2020, then her wrist in December 2020, and that whole pandemic thing lol. Her main level, USAIGC Silver (L6/7ish)...
Please help me understand state meet scoring. Say a meet has three sessions of Junior A kids in level 3, are there three state champions with the winner of each session considered a state champion? Or is there one state champion that is determined across all kids in junior A from across all...
Help me understand state meet scores. My daughter hasn’t had her state meet yet but will soon. I’m trying to understand if scoring is different than a regular meet. So, for example, say there are three sessions for a level and each session has a group of junior A kids. Is there one all around...
Please help me understand the importance of the state meet. Is it just a bigger pool of athletes from across the state. So, instead of say 12 kids to compete against, there are 25-30? If you win at states, then what? It seems that the focus is on states and doing well at states, but I guess I...
Does anyone know how Optional State Championships will work? I know some states still have many restrictions, while others are opened up and running seasons. Does that mean only some states will have championships? Also, does anyone know if qualifications to state have changed? I think my kiddo...
Asking this realizing that it’s more of a 6 month-1 year question rather than an urgent one, since changing gyms isn’t going to happen for a while between closures here in WA state, limited sizes for workout groups, and teams that are at capacity.
I’n looking for a new gym in the Seattle area...
