preteam

Well technically, she just had her first preteam classes this week! :p Sorry I haven't posted in a LONG time...but I have been around reading some and wanted to share that my 6 year old dd was promoted from the invite only pre-pre team class to level 4 preteam! So excited for her, she is...

Any ideas for a name for a pre team group of 5- & 6-year-olds?

I've posted a few times about my oldest daughter, who is five years old. She started gymnastics last June, and moved up quickly through the rec levels these last few months. The coach mentioned pre-team, so we filled out the interest sheet last fall. Today I received an email inviting her to...

Hi, everyone. I am new to this forum. My daughter just turned five years old and has been taking a recreational gymnastics class for three months. She absolutely loves gymnastics, much more than any other activity we've tried. She focuses very well in class, despite the fact that it is full of...

Hi ladies, It's been awhile since I've posted. My DD just turned 5 years old at the end of Decemeber and she's been moved up to the tiny beginers class for gymnastics. This class is for 5-7 year olds. She did a trial class on Sat. and did great. I was inquiring about what age the girls can...

Hi Everyone, I just joined this site! My daughter is 8 years old and has been taking rec classes for about 4 sessions now. Are there certain skills she needs to be pre-team? Or would she learn them once she is there? Thanks! lisa

Hi My 6.5 yr old daughter has two options with gymnastics right now. I would really appreciate some feedback. One gym would have her at level 3 (learning level 4 routine) preteam. Gym seems a little more serious, but she liked it. It is a pretty new gym/new group of girls for her. 6-7...

Had a whole long post and the CB ate it! Ack! It was probably too long or something, lol. Anyway, I am extremely ticked at DD's gym, and could use some BTDT advice. Since my fingers are good and sore from my first attempt, I will try to summarize my issues in point format! 1. Have had...

Pre-Team Parents - The Chalk Bucket I thought it would be fun to have a group to chat about how our little ones are doing with pre-team. Please join me so I'm not alone :D

DD will be 5 in October, today was her second pre-team class. When she first started gym last year she didn't want to leave me, would refuse to do the preschool warm ups but was fine once they started doing the equipment. She got used to class she started doing so well and the coach asked her...

DD starts her new class tomorrow! Wondering if there is anyone else who has 4 or 5 year olds moving from pre-school to pre-team or a developmental program.

I feel like I've started a lot of threads for a newbie, but I have a question that I was hoping some of you parents could relate to. DD is 7. She has been in gymnastics for 3 years - she started at age 4. She did 1 year tots, 1 year developmental, 6 months "mighty mites" and now 6 months of...

Hi, another new gym mom here. I've been doing a ton of reading since my four year old DD came home from her preschool class two weeks ago with a recommendation to move from the PreSchool class to the pre-team program. For the summer they have a sign up as for as many classes as you want...

Let me preface this by saying I what I know about gymnastics, progression, level structure, etc could fit on the head of a pin. Dance I understand, this I do not. Can anyone explain what pre-team means exactly in terms of time committment, expectations, etc? BeeBee Loo's coach sticks his...

Hey everyone! I coached through my teens and very early 20s, then stopped coaching for a few years, got married, had kids, etc. My DD started mommy & me gymnastics at a local gym last summer and I began coaching rec classes in the fall. Beginning in a few weeks, I'll be starting a brand new...

Okay so maybe if you look at/saw my other post you would know that today we got our 'report cards' back. Sooo..i am on Level 3 Pre Team! i know, most of you are like..wow. haha. but, i am a beginner. so. no hate(: so, what i am just trying to ask is, what is the MAJOR skills you need to be able...

I love reading everyone's posts here. They are very helpful! I rarely see any posts about Levels 1-3. Around here, we don't have any gyms that compete levels 1-3 so it is strictly considered rec or pre-team levels. My daughter just turned 7 and started gymn late October. She has had seven...

Ok well in gymnastics right now i am in a recreation class called Advanced which is the highest rec. class you can go to before you go onto pre-team or level 4.And i've been on Advanced for quite some time now!Maybe about 4 or 5 sessions and i'm starting to get to a point where no ones said...

I'm telling you guys because my husband has no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to particulars! So after this, he can nod and smile because I got it out elsewhere lol! Needless to say, it will be long! Everything went really great. Lots of surprises in the way of planning though...

I'm starting one very soon, 4 and 5 year old girls that will be coming 2 days a week, 2 hours at a time. Essentially it's a promising group the compulsory coach is interested in; and whos parents have expressed trying out a more serious program in the hopes of joining the older pre team and...
