love that idea... except a lot of the smaller gyms don't have a senior open and a worlds team.
not sure if that would even solve the problem. kids on the SO5 teams just want to be on a worlds team. it's so sad that the ENTIRE season is now being based on one competition. it's not positive growth for athletes or programs.
it's a bad approach no matter what way you look at it. athletes arent developing skills properly... i have seen way too many athletes attempt fulls when they shouldnt be, just to make a level 5 team. also, starting to see athletes level 3-4 athletes switching gyms to be on weak level 5s at other gyms. whatever happened to the days of being the best at any given level?
