I am incredibly proud of my 9 year old L2 daughter. This weekend she had her first meet where she hit all of her skills in her routines with no falls or major errors. She finally showed her coaches that she can do everything in a meet that she can do in a practice which is huge as we are...
While I realize that you can't diagnose over the Internet, I am hoping for some reassurance that this isn't a big deal.
My 9 - year-old daughter is currently training for her second level 2 season which begins in January. She began complaining of ankle pain on her round offs and jumps last...
My daughters have their state gymnastics meet the his weekend. My older daughter has struggled a bit this season but is finally starting to catch up. In order to give her a little boost of confidence, hubby and I discussed her having a private lesson only to learn the coach was out of town...

Our gym in the Midwest competes Amerikids for at least levels 2&3 and maybe even 4. Is this like AAU? I know that there are compulsory routines and low practice requirements for time.
I saw my 6 year old Level 2 hit her pullover on bars last night more than once with ease. She claims to have her back hip circle, too, but I haven't seen that one yet.
