If my daughter was on a J5 team, I will be too pissed, I mean pissed to the highest pissivity, if they receive a Worlds exhibition bid, it is not like Worlds is a totally new idea for J5 athletes...Amount of money spent for exhibition, No thank you!Maybe all the j5s will receive Worlds exhibition bids for this year to celebrate!!!
I sort of agree, except it's 90% easier to get a worlds bid than it is to get a summit bid. It's not like summit is just for J5. If that were the case, I'd agree with you.
There are 316 total worlds bids available for 2015 across 10 Divisions.
The summit has 269 bids total available across 40+ divisions (depending how they split coed or not). There are plenty of J5s who didn't receive summit bids that could have gotten a worlds bid had they been age eligible.

I remember our Junior Co-ed got to go to Worlds (now that I think about this, J-Co isn't even a division anymore :(), .

So take every level but leaving out 1? :rolleyes:@CindyLou22,
Like I said already, Summit is a good idea, but it is too big in scope and need to streamline itself, maybe only levels 2-R5 and only Senior division...
So take every level besides leaving out 1?
I can see it now: all these small gyms throwing together a j5 with 1-3 kids with fulls...Maybe all the j5s will receive Worlds exhibition bids for this year to celebrate!!!
Level 1 teams don't work as hard, so they don't really deserve to go, I don't think.

Except Worlds teams are pretty hard to have to begin with. So there's a lot of elimination just getting INTO the divisions.
We hear coaches and owners whining all the time about how hard it is to keep level 5 athletes because they don't have teams to put them on. One third of the AL bids were cut this year. I agree it's not like 2004 when only 10 teams went, but it's not "easy".
Is that really fair? Lots of people say the same about L2. Granted, the stunts and tumbling are harder, but L1 shouldn't be discounted. At all. It's everyone's foundation.Level 1 teams don't work as hard, so they don't really deserve to go, I don't think.
