Recently my 7 y/o daughter's level 3 bar coach began telling the girls they are not allowed to use chalk on bars - whether at practice OR competition (they also are not allowed grips) -- this has become an issue because she gets sweaty palms (especially at meets, and has missed a skill because her hands slipped. I saw her frantically trying to dry her hands off on her competition leo seconds before her turn at a meet last weekend. Her coach is not big on explaining things - to the kids or the parents - but am I missing something?? Is there an issue with using chalk that I am unaware of? I don't want to rock the boat with him - but this is a problem.
