Can someone give me an idea on what this might score in a meet? I know there are a few places where she could kick (lever) higher and with an straighter leg. Her leaps and jump can be higher. I'm just curious. This looks so much better then last year (repeating L4) and just wanted a...

Today at my DD L4 practice meet she got notes back on her events on things to work on. One of the notes said she must squat in her double flip flop. What does that mean? Is that for after the round off prior to the first flip flop? I have limited gymnastics knowledge & I didn't want to...

So, I have noticed as I have become friends on FB with other gym parents that several (not all) are also friends with some of our coaches. Now, I can say most of these coaches are 20-24 yrs old and the moms are all 35 and up... It made me wonder if coaches are comfortable sharing their private...

This year the older girls (level 7-10) are going to be secret Santa's to the younger girls (level 3-6). At the end of 2 weeks there is a gift exchange. There is a limit of $20 and it is requested no candy/food. What would an "older" gymnast like??? Would they like Starbucks gift cards...

We found out we get to attend the Vegas meet in January 2016! Has anyone attended this meet? Is it huge? Good meet for lower level girls? We are thinking of extending our stay and making a mini family vacation out of it...

My oldest DD finally got her kip today! It has taken her months and many tears of frustration but she did it! She asked me to stay today to watch as she said she just had a feeling today was her day. She turned 10 a month ago and said all she wished for was to get her kip. So proud of her for...

I agreed to let my 10 year old and 8 year old go to a university run gymnastics camp. There is no one else from our gym attending this camp. Since they have never been before does anyone have advice that I can give them about the camp? Advice for mom?? Anything I should pack for them that may...

I had a question in regards to thoughts on buying a beam and or a single bar for home practice. It seems lots of our level 3 gym parents have bought one or both for their girls and older girls have at least a beam. I don't have either but am feeling like maybe my oldest is behind because she...

Hello all I'm a new gym mom and I have 2 girls in the sport. My oldest DD 9 ( soon 10) just finished her level 3 season and not sure on her placement for next year. My youngest DD ( 8 tomorrow) did level 3 but at the AAU level and going JO in the summer/fall. Again not sure 3 or 4. I can say...
