Coaches: how many of you have specific requirements, like you must have a ROBHS to make the team? Has it always been that way at your school? If the requirement was implemented after you got there did it change things?
We try to keep it that you must have tuck to be considered for varsity as a minimum requirement. A round-off tuck would be the lowest skill that would qualify. BUT we sometimes need to make exceptions because we need the stunts to work. Last year we took two really strong bases without tucks and we needed them so wouldn't have changed anything, but throughout the season we had to pull up a few more girls and had to focus on stunting for them as well so we ended up with too many without tucks. This year we are going to try to stick to the rule that you need a tuck. We have girls on our JV team with stronger tumbling than some on varsity but that weren't what we needed for stunting that year.
