Subject: Level 5-5 rankings?

I sent this before, but never got a response.

Are level 5-6's ranked in anyway? My granddaughter
is an 8yr old level 5. One of her coaches told
my daughter that Jessica is ranked number one
in the state for 8yr old level 5's. Can you
verify this for me? The state is Illinois btw.
Thank you.

Who has QuickTime gymn MOVs out there? Perhaps they can be put on the GYMN
ftp site?

I can do QuickTime video captures on my Mac and flatten them for Windows,
so they can be viewed with both the Mac and Windows QuickTime MoviePlayer
(version 2.0) from Apple. I've successfully done this with a video clip of
the capsizing of our whitewater raft last summer. I'm planning to put up
Canadian FIG-Coded moves (Strong, Rankin, Cappuccitti, Homma, Oka,
Poulin,...(any guy's moves, Hardy?)) as very brief QT MOVs under my
Gymnastics Canada home page some time this year. But first, I need more
disk space.

Don't know where to find a Level 9 around here but...

In artistic women's gymn in Canada, the National Stream categories are
Novice, Open, Junior High Performance, and Senior High Performance.
Each province has their own Provincial Stream. I don't know how all the
provinces handle their provincial stream, but here are my impressions on
Ontario vs. Massachusetts (basically the only 2 places where I've lived) in
skill level & performance:

Optionals but not compulsories are competed in Ontario. Hopefully, this may
help U.S. clubs who may be interested in hosting Ontario clubs for
invitationals and vice versa.

Level 1 (Pre-Novice 9 & 10 yrs old 1st year, Novice 10 & 11 yrs old, Junior
12 & 13, Senior 14 & up):
- may only perform FIG A & B skills, C, D, & E skills are restricted, no bonus
- only 1A & 1B (other than Pre-Novice) vaults may be performed
- don't need more than 8 elements, 1 bar change, A dismount on bars
- acro series doesn't need flight, A dismount on beam
- 2 salto line allowed but not required, gym series of min 3 A's on floor
- generally well-executed and well-composed routines
- equivalent to Level 5-7 in performance in Mass.

Level 2 (Pre-Novice, Novice, Junior, Senior, Open):
- no round-off entry to vault, beam, bars, no bonus
- D & E skills are restricted, C skills restricted for Pre-Novices
- only Senior & Open have FIG special requirements
- vaults are typically handspring-full, half-full, sometimes half-1.5
- bars usually include usual B flights, giants (Junior & up)
- typically don't see flight acro series on beam, usually front salto dismounts
- about 50% of the competitors perform layout full, front to back salto
tumbling on floor, double saltos are restricted
- generally very well-executed and well-composed routines
- equivalent to Level 7-9 in performance in Mass.

Level 3 (Pre-Novice, Novice, Junior, Senior):
- only Senior 3 competes full FIG no restrictions
- Yurchenko vaults, D & E skills are restricted (except Sr 3)
- C's not required until Junior, double saltos restricted until Junior
- handspring-1.5, half-1.5 vaults, some Tsuk tuck & pike, occasional front tuck
- giants with pirouette, occasional front giant, nobody D releases
- double turns on beam, some ff-ff connections, simple mixed series, saltos
- a few double saltos on floor from Juniors & Seniors, double fulls
- medium-valued skills, well-executed and well-composed routines
- athletes who try out for National Stream in November and don't make 66.0
for 2 days of FIG Ib, end up in Level 3
- equivalent to Level 9-10 in skill level and performance in Mass.

There is also Ontario Pre-Novice 4 level which is like the US Elite
Childrens' level (if that's still around). They compete 4A & 4B, no bonus,
FIG special requirements, and only Yurchenko vaults and E's are restricted.

In many regions in Ontario, there are recreational competitive levels as well.
I have noticed that many of the routines in rec-comp have similar content.
So compared to US compulsories in skill level & performance, this is where
you would see equivalence to US Levels 4-5. Girls that do US Level 1-3
skills don't normally compete around here.

Hope this helps. And I hope you weren't referring to RSG ;^)...

Regards,

Grace

As each meet passes with no sign of Kim Zmeskal (or Amy Borden,
for that matter), I'm beginning to wonder:
Which meet(s) must a gymnast compete in to be in the running
for membership in the US Olympic team in Atlanta, and can
folks like Kim and Amy still do this?

Subject: Re: Question re: eligibility for Atlanta team

A gymnast who hopes to make the team to Atlanta must first qualify to
the U.S. Championships. There is one more meet in which a gymnast can
qualify to nationals, the U.S. Classic in May. Kim Zmeskal must compete
in that meet if she hopes to compete in Atlanta. I am wondering,
though, if Senior National Team Members from the previous year are
automatically qualified to this years nationals, though. Since Amanda
Borden was petitioned onto the Senior National Team last year, if it is
true that Senior National Team members are prequalified, she would not
have to compete in the U.S. Classic. If national team members are not
already qualified, though, Amanda, like Kim, would have to compete at
the U. S. Classic

Subject: Kim Zmeskal

The thing I'm thinking about is that if Kim Kelly got "kicked" off
the team, how can Kim Zmeskal make it? I mean, she hasn't competed
in a while, I don't think she'll be at the American Cup, she missed
the American Classic last summer and Nationals, so, if she makes
Olympic Trials or whatever, I wonder if they'll take into
consideration that she hasn 't competed in a while. But then again, I
know she is a big time veteran. Maybe it will be the opposite, maybe
an unexperienced girl who makes it will be replaced by Kim!?!?!; or
something to that effect.

There are several QT movies at the Penn State sites, which are at:

http://www.cde.psu.edu/users/pzb4/PSU_Gymnastics.html
and
http://www.cde.psu.edu/users/pzb4/WGymn/WGymn.html

I'm not sure if they are FTP'able. You might ask Pat Besong
(pzb4@cde.psu.edu), the maintainer of that page.

BTW, is anyone else having trouble with long response times from my
(Stanford's) web server? Just wondering if it's an internal problem or
if the server is taking its time with everyone.

I severly doubt that Kim will be at the US Classic, Nationals, or *THE* Trials.
I think she's just doing exhibitions. I doubt that ANYONE who was serious
about the Olympic would only attend two to three meets prior to the games.
Think about it people? I thought she'ld make it, but now I realize it's
a pipedream.

Hey everyone, check out the USA Gymnastics site:

http://www.usa-gymnastics.org/usag/

The web site includes pages for the American Cup, which
I will be updating DURING the meet right from the
competition floor. Also at the web site, you can
enter a contest for one of ten free American Cup
t-shirts -- autographed by the participants.

Feedback about the pages is appreciated -- please
direct it to ***@usa-gymnastics.org.

Howdy.

There is a small typo in the Web address Tony sent out for the Booster
Club of his gym. A slash is replaced by a questionmark. So, after successfully
trying out the site, permit me to offer this correct address for this site:

http://www.fosters.com/FOSTERS/staging/atlantic.htm

This site seems like a great idea for gyms around the world. There are sections
of the web page like 'Meet the Coaches,' 'Meet the Gymnasts,' 'Results,'
'Sponsors,' and and Upcoming Meets section as well. I hope this innovative
trend will continue, as it can do nothing if not increase public interest in the
sport of gymnastics!!

Subject: Fantasy Gymnastics, anyone?

A few months back, someone posted on the plausibility and possibility of a
Fantasy Gymnastics 'game.'

I am interested in this, especially with the Olympics coming up. If anyone
would be willing to give a little expertise and/or experience, I would also be
interested in attempting to set this up. My husband has participated in Fantasy
Football (American Football...) at his work, and their setup required an initial
pay-in of (if I recall correctly) about US$5--I do not know how or if a $$
requirement would work via the Internet...They also had a much smaller number of
'players'--about 10. It would probably be best to run it a few times (maybe
without the cash...) before the Olympics to iron out any kinks. Or, like in the
Fantasy Football contests, to run it for a series of competitions--like a
'gymnastics season' since Fantasy Football doesn't run for only one game, but a
series of games.

If it's possible, and if someone would be willing to help hammer out a plan, so
would I. Football fans shouldn't have all the fun!

Thanks,

Michele

Subject: Olympic TV Viewing

Howdy again,

Has anyone heard about TV coverage in the US for the Olympics?

I remember during the '92 Barcelona Games there was a huge pay-per-view
'special' where you could order the 'Red Channel' the 'Blue Channel,' or the
'Yellow Channel,' or all three. Each channel broadcast different events, which
I were published in advance, so you could choose what events you want to watch.
I heard financially this pay-per-view event was a financial flop, but I am
curious to know if any of you partook, and if so, how did you like it? Has
anyone heard of such a program for the Atlanta Games? Thanks in advance.

THe Triplecast was indeed a disaster financially. They won't be doing that
