    WAG Shorts in competition

    I agree tank leos and shorts are sporty and professional. i also hate to see people have to quit because of female issues. the problem is that most people don't admit that is really the issue, so people don't know how common it really is. i don't understand why we would make it hard on teens who...

    WAG Can you use USAG compulsory music in optionals?

    i think a level 6 who competed all compulsory levels should do a compilation of levels 1-5 and end the compilation with that commencement ceremony music. it would have to flow and be cohesive, but i would laugh.

    Parents New Gym, struggling with Coach Communication

    i would reiterate with your child that despite what the coach told them, it is important for your child to come to you and discuss problems or issues at gym that don't sit well. teaching a kid not to be able to confide in their trusted authority figure is unwise. tell your kid this. now, when...

    WAG USAG magazine cover

    I would like it if they just switched from the long sleeve competition leo to a tank leo with shorts for competition. I know... I know... the style has been around for years, but seriously it is 2017. Let's give these girls some coverage, especially those who are post-puberty. So many of these...
