Parents TOPs Diamond team

[Fijiwater]

Does anyone out there know what the Diamond team cut off score was for Tops last year for 7 year olds, 2012?

I had 2 make the Diamond team and we never received what the cutoff was. I can tell you one maxed out on mostly everything except one split and Handstand had 2 faults. The other maxed splits but everything else was off by 1

So maybe you can tell me on the cast to HS how the points are given?
2 points for each cast, rt? If an attempt is made and the HS is achieved but the girl doesn't return her hips to the bar, falls or does a back hip circle, does that cast get 1 point or no points?

Cast to HS is 5 attempts, 2 pts for each attempt. It's a little different for 7-8 year olds than 9-10 year olds, I think. You can look up scoring on USAG website under TOPs physical abilities.

My DD made the Diamond team last year. The cutoff was 64 points according to the USAG website: :: USA Gymnastics :: National TOPs Testing ::

Those cut-off scores are for 2011 before they took out the sprint, vertical jump, and whatever else they removed. 2012 is the first year with the new scoring and less physical abilities tests.

Then I am not quite sure what the cutoff was although I could probably find out easily enough from our head coach. I will let you know what I find out...
