My DD started gymnastics this past summer, and got invited to pre-team in fall. This weekend her gym had an in-house meet. She didn't place, but everyone received a trophy and she was so excited. It gave us a good taste of what competing would be like (especially with bringing siblings along).
That's pretty much it I guess I'm relatively new to the whole gymnastics thing. She started a rec. program with our gym this summer, then moved up to Level 1. After the first class they invited her to pre-team, so we are doing 2x a week for an hour. How long do kids usually stay in pre-team? Her coach said she needs to work on back flip? (kicking her legs up and going backward flip over the uneven bar) and pointing her toes more on the beam. I should add that she turned 5 this summer. Thanks! Glad to have found this board.
