During conversation with a parent at a recent meet, she brought up something that never crossed my mind as a possibility.
At her DD's gym, they recently moved up a couple level 4's to level 7. The girls competed one last level 4 meet and the following meet they competed level 7. One girl supposedly will be competing both level 4 and level 7 for the remainder of the season. Is that even possible to do both compulsory and optional all in one season?
Do you feel that is fair to the level 4 kids who are working hard on their skills to go up against kids who are beyond the level 4 skills and scoring 37-38 AA?
This is all the details she shared. I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this for me and help it make more sense to me. I just cannot imagine a gym would do this for one and another it being ethical and allowable. And I know, its not really my business, its more about curiousity and belief in the sport.
Thanks for your time once again
