Wondering how other gyms manage this situation: if the gymnast suffers a knee injury mid season in higher levels (7+) and she was on track to move up a level (competed well in the current level)...but is not able to complete state championships due to injury...can she move up to next level?
Does the gymnast have to compete state championship? Or is the move up left to the discretion of the coach with or without having the gymnast compete state? Or does the gymnast HAVE TO repeat a level to attain a mobility score at state?
My daughter has a knee injury and we aren't sure she will be healed in time for state..coach thinks she might... not sure. Even if she her knee is fully healed it will take her time to put out her best - she won't have the time since her expected recovery time is so close to state... just not sure if low scores and competing just to stay on track would be in her best interest or if she has to compete at all to move up?
Anyone have experience with this situation?
