I’m just curious to know other parents’ opinions on 100% medal placement in the All-Around. I’m personally not fan of participation trophies (or medals in this instance). I also think it’s more embarrassing to be called up and announced in last place to receive your medal than it would be to not receive a medal at all. I think going out 50% is fine, but I feel like 100% takes away from those who placed high. My DD is usually middle of the pack so she may or not place at every meet but I feel like it would be a good life lesson and would encourage her to work harder.
On a side note, I think it’s fine to do 100% for levels 1 and 2, but starting in level 3 I think they should not do 100%.
