My DD is a level 3. Her state meet is coming up and the schedule says the "younger" girls will compete in the morning of competition day and the "older" girls will go in the afternoon. How does this work for team award? Will there be a younger group team champion and an older group team...
Now I can breath. Wow! I was a nervous wreck. I tried so hard to keep it to myself and not let it rub off my dd. for being it her first state, I think she did excellent. Not her best scoring but she came home with 3rd on bars, 1st on vault and 2nd all around. There was at least 25 gyms, and 29...
Just a little vent.
This is dd first year competing and has done amazing in my eyes ( of course right? She's mine) her lowest score all year was 34,250. But stress is showing today.
Well my dd's state meet is Sunday and she was really struggling tonight at the gym. Falling off the beam...
Hi,
I am from a state that is just starting Xcel. We are a new gym and added Xcel as are only form of competition and plan on keeping it that way. Most of the others gyms in the state have been around for a while and all have JO programs so Xcel is an add on for them. We only had a few clubs...
Hello all, We just finished our Judges Cup this Sunday and there were about 20 gyms competed in Lv2 about 200 gymnast (give or take). My dd had a good day, she finished 2 first and 2 second and 1st all around with 37.35. This is her first year competing as a lv2 and is 6 years old. Now, with...
Can anyone give me a suggestion for a gift to a gym/coach my daughter practiced over the Christmas season? The owners let my daughter practice with his team for as many days as she wanted at no charge! It was such a surprise! My daughter ended up practicing for 4 days between 2-5 hours each...
Hello all, Is it common to still have meets after State? In our gym we still have 3 meets after our State. I wasn't sure if this is a common practice. Thought State meet concludes the season.
Last year both of my girls didn't do great at their state meets. Not like last place; but not too good.
This year they have both had pretty darn good years. My younger DD has had a really good year. She has placed on beam at every meet, even at meets against the tough teams in our area (the...
Apologies if everyone knows this but here is an URL to past State Champions in JO & Xcel (through Spring 2013). Click on the individual links for printable pages to use for scrapbooks/display/keepsake.

Younger Dd is next week. I have to admit that I'm excited to be done with doing hair!!! DS starts competing in January, so we have almost 2 months off from meets. :D
Hi,
Here's our situation: DD1 is toward the older end of her L4 group. Has been slow to progress. Did okay in L3 last year and won a first place on an event at L3 state. Barely made it into L4 this year, but improved tremendously this season. Had our last meet and she missed State by 0.2 (we...
Hi everyone! I was just curious what the qualification score to make it to state was in your area! For us, compulsory level 3/4/5 all need a 34.5 AA to make it to the state meet! Not sure about optionals because the season is in the Spring. We are NorCal (california is divided into north &...
We had our district championships tonight. My DD had the best meet she has ever had! She scored 9.4 on vault (2nd place), 9.325 on bars (5th place), 9.275 on beam (7th place), and 9.25 on floor (15th place), for a total of 37.25 all around. She placed 7th all around and qualified to South...
Please bear with the newbie to competitive gymnastics!!
So I was discussing comp season this morning with some of the other parents (whose daughters competed last year) and the subject of sectionals came up because our gym is hosting one this spring.
Sectionals is different from state, right? I...
I'm wondering what the minimum score is to qualify for state championships, L4, JO. I thought I saw it somewhere when I was first looking up something on the new level system. I don't know where I saw it. Anybody know?
A couple of weeks back (End of May), I had my first ever state championships as a level 4. This was also my grading comp into L4. After netball in the morning of the comps, I then had a 3 hour drive down to the competition but I was worth it! Vault was first up: Good but not my best, 13.3 3rd...
