I think the parents are a little scared to ask what the heck. We have girls (including my dd) who have all of the skills to move up. Most of our girls scored 35 or higher at states. I believe my daughter actually does the 6 routines better bc her tucks, bwo on beam and flyaway are sooo high. At states last year one of the judge/announcers read the score of the 1aa (38.250) and said "its time for someone to move up". So we think there has to be something bigger than the individual going on right now.
Another question to ask is if it is the lack of girls who would be able to compete in L6 that is the reason.
Just wondering why this would be an issue? We just had ONE girl compete at a meet for her level, she was the only one ready (2nd year) and the coach went with her and she competed by herself. Should the coach have not let her compete just because the other girls aren't ready? Should she be moved to the next level where she isn't ready, will struggle, but will have a team to compete with? As a parent it doesn't make any sense at me, can you tell me as a coach how it makes sense? I am sure there are reasons because I have heard of girls being held back or moved up because they didn't have at least 3 girls to compete for that level and I just don't get it. I have been to many meets where there are just 1 or 2 girls competing for a team in a given level.
To the OP, if my daughter had all the next level skills and could do them well/safely, and had done well at the previous level, I would definitely want to know why she wasn't moving to the next level. Good luck asking and figuring it all out.

And talking to the coach will result in your daughter spending 2 hours on tumbletrack at the next workout instead of being coached. And moving to another gym isn't an option so I guess the parents/girls have learned to just mutter under our breath. !
