There is always exceptions but for every amazing kid I've seen twice as many dangerous ones. I should clarify that I am talking more from experience with competitive gymnastics then cheer. I know getting rid of the division won't stop the kids from doing the skills but it will stop gyms from having a team of 5 amazing kids and 10 almost killing themselves. Put the talented ones on a youth and then let the others work on their skills on a level 2.
Honestly I could do without Mini 2 and 3. If a kid is determined and focused enough to get their BHS at 6 they are focused enough to be on a Youth 2. Keep Tiny/Mini 1. JMO.
I gotcha. I could agree with this for the most part. I'm not a huge fan of Mini 3 myself honestly and I would be for eliminating that division entirely. But if they don't eliminate it, don't restrict it. And I am completely 100% against restricting Youth 5.
