Travel meets for our compulsories are elective but in order for the compulsory level to compete a minimum number of girls have to commit so inevitably there is a lot of peer pressure for all the girls to go so that the lower level gets to compete. I wonder if your gym is sort of similar where it's not a big deal if one or maybe two opt out but if half the team opt out then there aren't enough kids to make it worth attending from a cost standpoint. In any case better to say something now than wait and let the expectation build that you would be going.
