    Parents Competing in shorts

    My 13yo daughter will be L8 this season and wants to compete in shorts. No one else at her gym does and they haven't offered the option, though I'd be shocked if they pushed back at a gymnast who wanted to. Like many normal teens, she would rather not be the only one and attract that attention...

    MAG Bike Shorts?

    What are your boys wearing to practice? Favorite brands? One of our boys has asked for what sounds like bike shorts and I’m not sure that would be comfortable. Granted, I only drop off and never stay so it could be something I’ve just missed.

    Parents Shorts at practice

    Just curious… With USAG announcing that shorts can be worn during competition for women’s gymnastics, has your gym allowed shorts during practice and/or meets for this season? Our gym has always encouraged shorts, however we are still getting gym transfers in from older girls who want to wear...

    MAG Men undergarments with Gymnastics shorts question

    I just bought Men Gymnastics shorts from GK Elite. Like these pictures, https://www.gkelite.com/collections/gk-gym-men-pants-and-shorts In Women's Gymnastics, they don't wear undergarments underneath leotards. However, I assume Men wear undergarments FruitLoom/Hanes (boxers, underwears) with...

    Parents Shorts Recommendations

    I searched the forums but all the threads look pretty old and outdated, does anyone have updated recommendations for shorts to wear over their leos? DD has been wearing her school leggings at practice, at first she said she was cold, but mom and I suspected it is because she is uncomfortable...

    WAG IGC requiring female campers to wear shorts or leggings

    I thought this was interesting in light of another thread recently about having the options of wearing shorts with competition leotards. "International Gymnastics Camp’s concern with the current issues facing USA Gymnastics drives us to take a pro-active approach to ensure gymnastics is a safe...

    WAG Shorts in competition

    The dutch gymnastics federation decided to allow shorts in competitions. Before you could wear a unitard, but shorts that werent attatched to your Leo were a deduction. My kids don’t even wear shorts to practice (they are allowed to, most just don’t do it) but for now my rule stays no shorts in...

    WAG Compression shorts?

    Hi, I've never worn shorts during practice because they were not allowed. Now they are allowing them on Fridays (and when the season ends, every day). So, I ordered Nike pro shorts. I'm 13 and 4'10-ish, and weigh around 80 pounds. I ordered a youth medium, but they were too long. The youth sizes...

    Parents Bar shorts, a yes or no?

    WAG Compression Shorts

    I currently have a hamstring injury and was told by my sports doctor to purchase compression shorts to wear while I am at practice. Does anyone have any recommendations as to where I could buy them? Thank you! :)

    Parents Gym shorts

    Not sure if this is the best place to put this one (admins, feel free to move it, if it's in the wrong spot!). My DD's gym has a training uniform - red leo and black shorts (the velvet kind). She has just had a growth spurt, and I bought her some new shorts. The new shorts, although a good...

    Parents Where to buy Motionwear shorts?

    My daughter, who will ONLY wear Motionwear brand velour shorts, low-rise without rhinestones, just decided to have a growth spurt and outgrow all of her shorts. I went to the local sporting goods store where I usually buy them and was informed that "nobody wears velvet shorts in the summer, so...

    WAG Shorts at meets

    Since unitards are allowed in comp. shouldn't shorts be as well? I've seen some teams compete with shorts on and I've always wondered if it was a deduction. I get it looks nice without, but theres just issues sometimes. What if a girls on her period? Or has serious self esteem issues? Or her leo...

    Parents Boy shorts over leotards

    My mom bought the shorts below for my daughter, who is in love with them and wanting to wear them to gym over her purple leotard. They do look very much like the little microshorts she wears from GK, but they are, indeed, boy short underwear. I'd rather her not get made fun of if she wears...

    Parents Crop tops and shorts

    Just recently there has been a knew trend in our gym for some of the younger gymnasts (age 7-8) to wear tight crop tops and gym shorts (usually made out out of the same material as leotards), what do you think of these? I think they look kind of cute but the gymnasts who wear them have more...

    Parents Suggestions for shorts to protect from bars? (newbie mom)

    Hi there, Newbie mom here. Can you suggest what kind of shorts I should get for my daughter to protect her upper thighs on the bars? She's been complaining about how the bars rub against her thighs and make them hurt. Her coach suggested shorts. I got her cotton biker shorts to wear over her...
