    WAG Vent: Horrible practice

    Today was one of the worst practices I've ever had. To start off, my coach told us she had some bad news for us. We have 2 more weeks with her, and then she's being switched to another location. She is the best coach I've ever had, and I'm so upset that she's leaving so soon (I've only had her...

    WAG Injured Back (Vent)

    I injured my back about six weeks ago doing a round off off of a mat. I went to the doctor, taped it, iced it, ect. I have not been able to do half of the things at practice, :mad: but have still been going to do conditioning and whatever else I can do. My coaches understand and have been...

    WAG Another meet report, brag and vent!

    So we had our 3rd meet today... Pretty memorable due to the following facts: The competition was held in 2 gymnasiums (3 apparatus in one, the 3 others in another one) The fire alarm went on in the middle of the meet, while we were going to start the warm-up for the 4th apparatus... The fire...

    Parents mid-meet season vent

    So, every year I can't wait until meet season starts...so I can see the girls perform their new routines and see how they are going to score, etc. I even like packing up and heading out on weekend trips at the BEGINNING of meet season. Right now, we are over halfway through the season with...

    Parents venting....you won't believe this!!!

    I'm not sure whether to just feel angry or just sad! DD went to a birthday party on Saturday for one of her teammates. The girl is two years older and invited several girls from the gym. A few of them spent the night afterwards at the birthday girl's house (not my DD). Apparently the girl has...

    Parents Vent!!! Dang Alterations Place

    So the pants that were ordered for dd's warm ups were too long...to the extent that they were long enough for me. No biggie, she will grow, but brought them to the alterations place to have them hemmed and the waist taken in. Skinny is dd's middle name. They said they would be ready today...

    WAG Bars Vent

    I went to a high school meet the other day and I need to vent about something I've seen more and more often in the past few years. These kids are doing everything they can to throw more advanced skills on bars that look HORRIBLE to increase their start value. Sadly, they seem to be rewarded for...

    Parents Just a Vent

    I am not looking for advice; nor am I necessarily looking for members to comiserate (sp) with me. However, I just feel the need to vent. There is a little girl on my DD's team who consistently says such mean spirited and cutting things to my DD and the other girls on the team. What's worse...

    Just a vent! GRRR

    Okay, we just found out the day of states for next year which is about 2 months earlier than normal. Fine. except for the fact that that is 2 weeks after the school holidays and they expect us to cancel any holiday we have planned or not go with our family even if it is just for a week of the 3...

    Coaches Sort of a vent and a releif at the same time

    Back in June a couple of the kids I coach made the cheer team at their high school. This particular school required them to attend a week and a half long tumbling camp at a local cheer gym. They are also required to take classes at this other gym. Back in June, one girl was really close to...

    Parents Warning: pre-team rant/vent inside. Communication fail.

    Had a whole long post and the CB ate it! Ack! It was probably too long or something, lol. Anyway, I am extremely ticked at DD's gym, and could use some BTDT advice. Since my fingers are good and sore from my first attempt, I will try to summarize my issues in point format! 1. Have had...
