What do you mean "IF there becomes an BOTTOM to the age grid?"
My point isn't to limit competition, I'm just confused on why there is a Youth Restricted AND a Senior Restricted. There has been a lot of talk about creating a bottom age per div, IF that happens I strongly believe that there should be a Jr. Restricted division. There are 10/11 yr olds with doubles/standing fulls but that number isn't huge, however I do think there are many with just fulls who won't have a competitive place to go if they can no longer go into the Sr. Restricted Div.What about all the 10 and 11 year olds with doubles and standing fulls? Wouldn't adding a restricted Junior division hurt their chances of having any competition?
I think a bottom age would be great (I think Sr Restricted has hurt the Jr 5 division) but as a parent of a 10 year old with a double I would hate to see even less competition in their Junior 5 division. As it is they'll compete against maybe 1 or 2 teams all season. If a restricted Junior came into play they would probably either see no competition or be forced to not compete the skills they've worked so hard for and go restricted with the rest. .....so hopefully this won't happen for a couple of yearsMy point isn't to limit competition, I'm just confused on why there is a Youth Restricted AND a Senior Restricted.

Just out of curiosity did you decide to go SO5 because you were going up against Jr 5 teams with a lot more tumbling?Junior restricted would have been perfect for our small gym J5 team last season. We were great at stunting and had tons of fulls but only 1 double. We competed J5 and not J4 so our kids could do the skills they had worked so hard for. Toward the end of the season we decided to go SO5 and added 2 girls from the senior 3 team and it worked out so much better for the athletes since most of them they were competing at their skill level finally. But it was still tough to watch our 9-14 year olds compete against teams that were much older.

I understand why there isn't one but there aren't ANY other divisions in youth and senior that AREN'T in Junior. Also, do you ( @tumbleyoda & @EpicCoach ) think this will be a division IF there becomes an BOTTOM to the age grid?
