My DD is staying in pre team for another year b/c she hasn't gained the last couple of skills necessary to move to team. Other than the last couple of skills she's very much on par with those moving up. The kids in her new group are mostly way behind my DD in skill -they have all moved from a beginner 1/per week class in the past couple of months. Many of them can't fully kick up into a handstand or do a round-off. My DD pretty much has her back handspring (v light spot), and has been holding a handstand for a few seconds for over a year now. She's also looking great with the lvl 3 floor routine (just leaving out ROBHS). While I can see how the entire new group is together b/c all will train for level 3 for the following fall I am very concerned that my DD won't be challenged in this new group. Should I be concerned about this or can coaches find ways to challenge the more advanced members of a group? She's been doing so well in the more advanced group.
