I'm so excited for my daughter. The gym she's going to is starting up a new pre-team group in April and she gets to be a part of it! It's going to be a Level 1 group of girls and they're all right around 4 1/2 years old. I think there will only be 4-5 girls in the group, at least initially. Since none of the girls are in school yet, the class (1.5 hrs x 2 days a week) will be during the day, which I LOVE!
The gymnastics director is going to be doing the class and told me that she's going to work Level 1, 2 and 3 skills so that they can maybe (and she stressed that it's a BIG *maybe*) start competing Level 3 next fall. I'm not sure how realistic it is, but we'll see. My daughter has been doing gymnastics for just under a year and just got her pullover on a really low bar, and is about 50/50 on her bridge kickover, so I guess maybe it's possible.
In any case, I'm just really excited that she gets to be in this new group and that all the girls are her age. Just wanted to share with you guys!
