    WAG AA Qualifying Score Change fo Region 7?

    Did the AA qualifying score for Region 7 for level 8 change again this year? I know last year they changed it to a 34 AA with the petition score at 35. But I think this year I saw on the website that it was back to 35 with the petition score being 36?

    NCAA Riley McCusker

    Is there a reason Riley hasn’t made a lineup for Florida? Is she injured or are they just that deep in talent?

    WAG Info on UNC High Performance Camp

    I’m considering sending DD to UNC’s high performance camp this summer and was wondering if anyone here has attended or sent their daughter? Would love to hear some reviews from first hand experience.

    Parents Advice for Pre-Team and Compulsory Parents from Optional Parents

    My gymnast is now training for level 8. The past few months, I’ve had a few parents of compulsory and preteam gymnasts asking for advice. I thought this would be a great place for parents of optional level gymnasts to share some valuable wisdom that we have learned over the years. So optional...

    Parents Flipfest or Woodward

    As a Christmas present, I want to gift my DD a week of camp at either Flipfest or Woodward. This would be her first gymnastics camp and I’m looking for opinions on both. She is working towards moving into upper level optionals next season, and so I’m curious if one of them is more focused on...

    WAG Blind Landing Podcast

    I just finished listening to the Blind Landing Podcast, which talks about the vault controversy during the Sydney AA. I found it to be very interesting and well done. Has anyone else listened?

    WAG Not Allowed to Repeat Levels

    Why do certain gyms not allow a gymnast to repeat a level? I know of a gym that does not allow their gymnasts to repeat levels 5 or 6. If they can’t make it out of 5 or 6 within a year, they tell the girls they are moving them to Xcel. What is the possible reasoning behind this?

    WAG Shift Movement Facebook Post

    Did anyone else happen to see Shift Movement’s Science recent Facebook post? It went into more depth on the actual post. DD conditioned 5-6 days a week while we were off, but nearly three weeks she has all but one skill back, including the BHS on beam, which she was terrified of and only...

    WAG Maggie Haney Hearing

    It appears Maggie Haney’s hearing begins today. Looks like Laurie Hernandez is set to testify. https://www.ocregister.com/2020/02/02/usa-gymnastics-hearing-on-abuse-charges-against-maggie-haney-opens-monday/

    WAG Big 12 Tickets

    Does anyone know when Big 12 championship tickets go on sale and the best place to buy them? DD wants to see Maggie Nichols compete before she graduates and this is probably our best chance to see her.

    Parents Broken Toe

    I always expected DD’s first broken bone would happen at the gym, but she broke her toe in a non gymnastics related event. The orthopedist wants to check her in two weeks and thinks it’s a good possibility she will be cleared to practice again. I was surprised that the toe would heal this...

    WAG MG Elite Podium Training Leo

    Did anyone else happen to see Riley’s leo for podium training? I know MG Elite pushes the boundaries in regards to their leos, but this one seems unsafe. She was constantly pulling and tugging at the top during training. I would think that this would raise safety concerns because if the gymnast...

    WAG Could USAG limit training hours?

    I know that USAG has an age requirement for some levels to protect young gymnasts. While it’s highly unlikely and I imagine would be very difficult to monitor, would they ever consider capping training hours based on level to protect young gymnasts from overuse injuries and early burnout?
