I was just told my daughter had a profile in gymdivas.com. I checked the website and indeed found her there. I navigated through the website and found changes to the profile can be made but by whom? Interestingly for me anyway, one of the photos in the website is a picture taken by my daughter's former coach at the gym during one of the practices. So the photo was never public and I don't even have a copy. As such, I am guessing her former coach requested her profile be included. But why? Why would she still be interested in helping my daughter's gymnastics career along? They were very upset when she left and have been mean to her at meets where we've competed against each other.
Additionally, my daughter's former teammate or only other gymnast in her same level at her former gym (currently still at her former gym being coached by her former coach) had a profile posted in the website as well. Troubling was her profile had some false information. It claimed she made L8 regionals and won vault. This gymnast never made L8 regionals, and such would have never own vault. It also claimed she competed JO Nationals when she never even got close. Some of the important information was also left out of my daughter's profile.
My questions are can anyone request a gymnast be put on that website? Who can make changes on the profile? Where does gymdivas.com get all their information? And do colleges look to this website for recruiting purposes? Should I even worry about getting the right information in?
