Great points! For most of us in the coaching world, developing good people is a higher priority than developing good athletes. Fortunately for us, it’s easier to do both than it is to do one or the other by itself. Your points remind us how simple it really can be to develop good habits in our gymnasts.

You might just have resuscitated politeness and discipline in gymnastics awards, Troy. CONGRATS.

Mary Lee Tracy gives you the thumbs up. We should all push collectively to improve ourselves.

Thanks for putting this up, Rick. I just hope it helps everyone. It is just information I have gathered from others over the years. Just trying to pass it on. Thanks again.

Agree with him on all counts! I just wish more gyms, coaches, and gymnasts cared enough to conduct themselves in this manner.
