I can't recall seeing any posts about the boys competitive system in the UK. I have a little man in a development squad. He's too young to compete at the moment and I'm perfectly happy watching him trying really hard and gaining confidence. He's made a sudden leap in progress in the last month and has started concentrating, pointing his toes (so cute) and looking stronger. I get way more enjoyment watching him than dd - hers is high stress and hardwork, but I'd never tell either one that!
However, some of the slightly older ones just did a competition and have another coming up and I know absolutely nothing about how the system works in the UK. Is it the same as the girls, with elite grades and club grades? What age do they start competing? Do they compete all pieces or are they phased in?
For some reason the dads seem to drop the boys off and the mums the girls. I can chat to the team mums, but I don't know the dads.
I've looked on the BG website and our regional one, but there's nothing there of any use at all!
