Ok, so I have inherited a squad of 30 girls, which is great except they are spread out over a wide age range and I'm really not sure how to split them for competitions. I would appreciate some advice or recommendations on how different coaches/gyms might do it.
The younger ones are used to being based by the older girls, so I am putting in a lot of work trying to get stunt groups that are more age appropriate, but it is really hard and there are a LOT of moans. It is only level 2 at this stage as I really don't think we will have BT's ready for comp.
Any ideas how I can break this down, crossovers are fine at this point, they are used to them.
- 2 girls aged 8, (one flyer one base)
- 5 girls aged 9, (mainly flyers, but one base)
- 1 girl aged 10 (flyer I am working on her basing skills)
- 5 girls aged 12 (can fly and base)
- 14 girls aged 14/15 (mainly bases but a couple can fly if need to, but are not particularly confident)
- 3 girls aged 16, 18, 19 (bases)
