Women Why do gyms do it?

[raenndrops]

Aside from the MMS mix-up, we were at a meet recently where some of the level 5's from a particular gym also competed level 6. Is this just to see how they would do as a 6? Someone mentioned that "declaration day" isn't until February so they might try a higher level and then decide which one to declare. I'm still not sure that's fair but I'm not in charge.

You are allowed to go back and forth between L5 and L6 all season, but you have to choose just one to compete for the State Meet.
