    WAG Vent- right in the middle of gym changes.

    If there is even a remote possibility of a lawsuit no one should be discussing it as it could be potentially harmful to the case. Sent from my SCH-I535 using ChalkBucket mobile app

    WAG Pros & Cons of a Booster Club

    This is how we would do things. We don't have the room yet to hold meets or clinics. We want to do car washes and scrip as well as other fundrsisers such as fun pasta. If we do some community fundraising we wouldn't be hitting up the same people Sent from my SCH-I535 using ChalkBucket...

    Parents When do they usually start learning their routines?

Since switching not only has my DD almost gotten all the hard skills on bars, but she knows how the routine connects, just started on beam routine this week, but have been working on floor for two...

    WAG Pros & Cons of a Booster Club

    From what I have read a booster club is similar to a PTA/PTO and run similar. With all the IRS guidelines it seems like a no brainer to have a booster club, especially non-profit. We are at a new gym and previously the owner/head coach had a bad experience with a Booster Club (keep in mind it...

    Parents Starting a Booster Club

    I will do non-profit paperwork not a problem. I also have others willing to serve. Our gym is brand new so we dont need to do a lot to start, but want to be able to fundraise. I would love a copy of someone's by-laws.

    WAG Vent- right in the middle of gym changes.

    Gymnastics is one of the most cut throat sports I have seen in regards to politics. Cant the girls still be friends outside the gym? Rumors are ugly and hurtful. In my opinion owners/coaches should do what they can to stifle that so it doesn't interfere with training. I know the new gym in...

    WAG Moving Gyms - Pros & Cons

    DD is by no means performing at her best. DD is at the level she is at because of a good coach. It is not all about the routines as they have not even worked on any dance or acro for new routines. I have seen minimal new skills introduced during practice. If you read all my posts you can see...

    WAG Moving Gyms - Pros & Cons

    She knows she is not allowed to discuss it. She isn't missing her regular practice do they have no reason to ask. Many compulsory parents are looking at the new gym. Some optionals have already moved along with several of the comp levels. Sent from my SCH-I535 using ChalkBucket mobile app

    Parents It's that time of the year again......

    It is hard when Coaches that are loved leave. It is a shame to let emotions control the situation. It is best to make a pros & cons list for both gyms and them weigh them. HTHs

    WAG Moving Gyms - Pros & Cons

    One of the full time coaches at our gym left and has gone to a brand new gym. The coach that left has had a huge impact on my daughter's gymnastics career. She had am awesome relationship with all of the gymnasts and knew how to work with their individual personalities. I have weighed the...
