Because she won the national championship in the intermediate class last year on standard trampoline, she was required to move up to the sub-advanced class this year. The routine requirements and the judging are much more difficult in the sub-advanced class than in intermediate. That, coupled with the facts that she just completed her routine correctly for the fist time three days before, it was her first competition in sub-advanced, and her coach told her not to expect high scores, gave here severe jitters to the point that, at the last minute, she told Faith she didn't want to compete in the event.
After reassurance from her mom, she sucked it up and competed. She got SECOND place out of eleven competitors!!
On Sunday, she got third place in floor tumbling, but we weren't there to get a picture.
All in all, it was a good meet. Needless to say, we are very proud and Adi was ecstatic!
