    WAG Nationals Apparel

    Region 1 may be one of the toughest to qualify through, but they do amazing swag! Here’s a picture of what they got at Regionals - the warmups, practice leo and competition Leo are picked up at Nationals.

    Parents How involved is your gym/coach in the college process?

    USA gymnastics just presented a very good webinar for gymnasts/parents on college recruiting. It also has good information on acro/tumbling college programs.

    Parents not watching meets

    I have to do some mental gymnastics myself - e.g. find ways to anticipate anything negative that could happen and think how this could be a positive. For instance- if she has a bad meet that will help her learn that she's not just valuable because of her performance, will learn to be a good...

    WAG College gymnasts

    I don't know the percentage but if you look at the college commitment lists for the next four years on Collegegymfans it notes whether each girl is elite or level 10. Some of the schools are mainly elite recruits while other schools have none at all...

    Parents Traveling questions .....

    You can also book multiple flights with southwest to lock in a good rate and then cancel the ones you don't use -as long as you don't mind getting the credit back in points to use later. It's much easier to do this is you book one way flights.
