I just had to post and tell you all about how proud I am of my dd.
dd who is 9 had her first level 7 meet this past weekend, it was just a practice meet so it didn't count, but there were judges there to score and provide feedback. I am so proud of her. She has been working so hard. Between managing school work, band and practices, she is doing fantastic. She was moved up to level 7 about 6 weeks ago, and just learned her routines on 10/15. There were only 2 gyms at the practice meet and there were levels 5 - 10. Some of the level 5's were using the level 5 music with the instructions.
Beam - 8.90
Floor - 8.50
Vault - 8.65
Bars - 7.90
AA - 33.95
Bars was interesting. There was another girl on the team who was extremely tight and straight leg giants and only got an 8.00. I guess they were deducting huge for the cast.
We think she has been nursing an abdominal muscle injury. I think she got it learning her routine on the 15th doing the bridge move in the floor routine. She was in a lot of pain after the meet Sat and missed the sleepover at the gym. So we are on rest until next monday. No practice. Then we will try just stretching but no strength on the abs. The next meet is on Nov 15/16.
Here's her video....
