Hoping there may be a gym out there who can help. DD is in development squad (small club) and her coach has decided that the squad are ready to go down grades route. They're doing grade 14 in March.
Coach has never done this before and I'm finding it hard to get answers from them. DD is weak on bars - can't do chin ups without help and only just started to leg lifts unsupported. She can fish swing and change grip to change direction whilst holding on with one arm. Everything else is hit and miss on bars. She is strong on vault and floor and competent on beam and in R&C. I know you can't say if she'd pass - but what happens if she doesn't average 10 across the multiple disciplines? Does she have to wait til next year and do Grade 14 agin or could she skip that and do Grade 13?
She wants to enter and I'm happy for her to give it a shot - I just want to manage her expectations and be able to explain what appends if she doesn't make the grade
Thanks for reading - sorry it's long
