I didn't realise gyms did this! The only thing I can think of with try outs for summit teams are gyms not really advertising as a team destined for the summit and once they win a bid athletes not being able to go and the teams need to tryout athletes for those positions maybe? Just my idea :) I'm from Australia so all I see is social media!
It happens. I know the gym CP was at this past season did try-outs for their dance teams that went to Summit but it was only because certain athletes weren't able to go for varying reasons. I can understand it then, or even when the bid is deferred since you're basically trying out for the next season team anyway; but to replace more than half of your team or more? Ehhh...I get why parents allow it, but my money won't be funding that type of business practice.
