Hello!
This is my first post bc I'm clueless!
My dd is 5 and has been in a preschool advance class since right before she turned four. In our gym pa classes are for those that "are on their way" to team but of course who knows what might happen by the time they reach 6.
Anyway, in our gym they don't compete unless you're a level 4 and have been asked to join the team.
Here are my questions. This month they took new level 4 girls onto the team, but parents are always left clueless as far as the process. One day you just get a call and you're asked. My daughter has always been the youngest in her group by about a year.
My daughter's coach won't really give me a straight answer. She first said they had to be 6 by Sept. 1st then she said by Aug 1st (my dd turns six at the end of Aug).
When the other moms found out my dd was not in this new group they were pretty confused. I wondered why since I thought she wasn't in it because she missed the cut off (age requirment to compete).
They mentioned there was a little girl who didn't turn six until Oct and was in this new group. SO, I figured...well, they just didn't want my daughter then.
She loves it anyway and we wouldn't change a thing. I just wish I would be told something, like "well, they observed her and they aren't interested" and move on.
ANYWAY, to make a long story short, I have no clue what to think. I'm just curious...BY WHEN do they have to be SIX to compete in level 4? Is it Sept 1 or Aug 1st or anywhere around there??
We're in Texas (I don't know if that makes a difference). I have no idea where to look and find out.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!
