I'm frustrated with DD's gym. Maybe in need of a reality check, lol . Here's what's going on-
DD is in Level 3 at her gym, they have a very small program- only about 30 girls with 9 on level 3. The 3's only get to practice 1 day a week for 3 hours, even though some of the moms have asked if they could practice twice a week. The gym said that they don't have time or room. The 4's practice 2 days a week for 3 hrs and the 5's get 3 days a week for 3 hours.
The other day at DD's practice I noticed that her group of 3's did not do floor, at all. They only practiced beam, bars, and vault. When I remarked on it one of the other level 3 moms said that they didn't do floor last week either-I wasn't there last week because I was working. It frustrates me a little that it's now been 2 weeks since they've practiced their floor routine. I've actually never even seen DD do her's in its entirety and they start competing in January.
Then when the girls were doing vault the coach at that station wasn't even paying attention. He was looking at the older girls and wasn't watching our girls at all. I get that it's "just a dive roll" but they could still get hurt. He wasn't offering any corrections either. I'm not a coach and I try not to judge coaching because I don't know how to but I know DD is supposed to do an arm circle during vault. She's not doing it at all and it's not being corrected. So this frustrates me. Should it? Or am I being a CGM?
Last thing- I promise . At the end of practice the girls all sit on the side of floor and watch as they each do an individual tumbling pass. For the last 3 practices I've been at every team has done this but the 3's. They sit and watch everyone else though. Shouldn't they get their turn too? Especially since they're only able to practice that 1 day a week?
I'd love some advice. I'm totally type A and controlling and I work hard to not be a CGM. If this wouldn't frustrate you please let me know or if it would let me know. Just trying to see if I am having realistic expectations or being crazy, lol
