Recruiting 101 – NCAA Gymnastics
more accusations against Dr. Larry Nassar
Ingham County Prosecuting Attorney Gretchen Whitmer said a “handful” of people who say they were victims of a Michigan State University doctor have contacted her since an article was published Monday detailing the accounts of two women who allege the doctor sexually abused them.
“As soon as publicity was given to this, more people have reached out,” she said.
Michigan State University police also have received additional complaints …

Chalk It Up – the movie
I rented Chalk It Up on iTunes for $4.99.
Pretty silly, actually. And not nearly as much Gymnastics as I had hoped.
This film is fun for young female gymnasts. It’s family friendly. But adults may find it juvenile.
Some of the cinematography is well done. The movie was shot in 12 days yet production values are impressive. With very little funding this project was clearly a labour of love.
Congratulations to Maddy Curley and the rest of the team for putting it together. Big shout out for International Gymnastics Camp for providing the Gym.

NCAA GYMNASTICS FOR BEGINNERS
You may not learn much new, but I highly recommend you click over to laugh out loud at the Balance Beam Situation primer for the upcoming College season. 🙂
What about individual titles?
HOW DARE YOU, SHUT YOUR FILTHY MOUTH. It’s all about the team. In NCAA, any acknowledgement of individual goals or the desire to win an individual title—or any honest assessment of your own individual gymnastic abilities—is tantamount to treason …

ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Kip Simons, head coach of the Navy gymnastics team, announced on Monday the addition of Charlie Tamayo to the Mids’ coaching staff for the upcoming 2016-17 season. Tamayo comes to Annapolis following a storied career on the international competition scene …

Full Out – the movie
Full Out is now on Netflix. And on DVD.
I saw it on an airplane.
It’s great for kids.
Jennifer Beals was excellent as a tough Miss Val. Ana Golja and stunt double Victoria Moors were quite believable.
The cameos are fun: Alicia Sacramone, Sam Peszek, Jordyn Wieber, etc.

Ariana Berlin’s comeback story was made for Hollywood: Nearly-fatal car accident ends a young girl’s Olympic gymnastics aspirations. Girl turns to dance but does not give up her other dream of competing for the UCLA Gymnastics team. Girl gets an opportunity to make the team at UCLA and ends up becoming an All-American.
This wasn’t an inspirational movie plot, though; this was real life. …
Sadly Director Sean Cisterna did not bother keeping the Gymnastics accurate. With very little extra cost they could have made the film far more realistic. Wrong Gymnastics will turn off a number of gymnasts and fans. 😦
