If they placed the teams in May during tryouts my child would have been on a level 2. But in the past few months she got her tuck, and almost has her standing tuck, so she has a good chance to be on the level 3/level 4 team. It gave her the push she needed. If she were placed on level 2 and knew that was where she was going to be all season, I know she wouldn't have pushed herself the way she did. Every gym is different, every child is different. This worked for us, it may not work for you.
Interesting.. I coach and we have level 2 kids working on punch fronts and tucks, but they aren't solid. Even though they compete at a lower level, we always work on advanced skills.
Our gym's lower levels always work on higher skills too. But it's not quite the same as being on the higher level team and being solid during a performance every time; I know the difference firsthand because I've seen what motivates her versus being in a comfort zone. She has moved up a level in her tumbling to the point where it is solid enough to be considered for the higher level team. Before she had it but I would not say it was solid, and she has been in that comfort zone for a couple of years until now. Just sayin that is what motivates my child, your mileage may vary.
I heard Cheer Odysseys Open Coed team is off the hook this year. 12 guys 12 girls should be awesome
so off topic.... but a team 24 members in a division that's maxed out at 36? Yup sound AMAZING!
Oh pipe down! A team can definitely be outstanding without maxing out the member numbers.
Actually International Open Coed is 24 members. Its only the regular senior divisions that are 36 members. I believe Cheer Odyssey is Open Senior International Level 5 from what I read.
Should be fun to watch!
