DD gymnastics 2011

[meeeshymoo]

I don't post too often, more of a lurker lol.

Am very proud of dd this year, for those who know the UK system, dd has just competed grade 12, which she passed with a distinction and qualified for regional finals. Did great and came 9th overall, shock fall on bars (normally her strongest piece), but was all good, she really enjoyed the experience.

We don't compete anywhere near as much as USA, so there is much build up and anticipation to competing. I do sometimes wonder if more comps would be better, as they spend so many hours in the gym to compete maybe 4 times a year.

That's great, I really HAVE to go to UK, it seems so amazing. That's really good, despite the fall. But if she doesn't mind falling, there's not much to worry about.
About comepting, that's not that bad, I never competed actually! Maybe you could talk to your gym and tell them to do some "mock meets" (?).
Good luck.
