As I type this, all across Colorado there are smiling gymnast faces on the gymnastics floor and proud parent faces in the stands. It is compulsory State Championship season and it is time for all the hard work that these young ladies put in during untold hours of gymnastics classes to pay off. Recent changes in the Level 4 and 5 qualifying procedures have raised some questions, but one thing remains the same, this is the time of year for these girls to chase personal bests, feel proud, and shine.
