    Fall states vs. spring states for levels 4-6

    Can someone explain to me the difference in approach to states? Why do some gyms have their levels 4-6 compete at fall states vs. spring states? What is the benefit to one over the other? Thanks!

    states! no pullover? deductions?

    Hi, I have states in 2 weeks and I don't have my pullover by myself yet, only with a spot. I would like to know the deductions on a routine with a pullover with a spot vs. a routine with just jumping to front support? Yesterday I had a trial comp and a girl called Hannah was supposed to spot me...

    Parents This weekend is DD's states, I need some suggestions....

    My daughter is a L4 and will be competing in her 1st state meet. She has been in great spirits until today....she had a horrible practice. Her HC tried to cheer her up and tell her that a bad practice makes for a good meet. My DD is 8 and I don't think she can see past the simple fact that she...

    Parents level 8 states best meet of year

    Well my dd ended her 2nd year of level 8 on a high note. In addition to having no falls on any event she scored her highest level 8 AA! She also competed with a very painful heel/tendon. Luckily vault was last as it caused the most pain and she barely made it through. She was .75 off from...

    Level 8 states

    This good luck forum has been very good to my flipper. She has been trying to clean up some of her stuff, and that often leads to two steps backwards to make one leap forward. She is working so hard and getting a little frustrated, which is ok. She is in a really tough field and the largest...

    Injured With States a Couple OF Weeks Away!

    My dd is injured with a states a couple of weeks away. She hasn't practiced all week and I'm not sure how things will go next week. The positive is that she has had a really good season so if she isn't in shape to compete states, her level 3 season was fun. Please send some healing fairies her way!

    Scoring between states

    I always read everyone's meet reports and they are my favorite part of CB. I had a question though regarding scoring. I will often see someone post about their DD's state meet and the scores seem so low. In our state sometimes a 36.00 won't even qualify you to state from south/north state...

    States qualifying? Zones?

    After reading a post about "zones" and only having one chance to qualify for states it brought up a few questions. First of all what is "Zones"? I am curious as to how different states and countries run their qualifying. I was somewhat shocked to hear they only have 1 chance to qualify. Where...
