For L10 parents with gymnasts on a prospective college path -
What's the one (or several) best thing/s that you would say your gym, or coaches, did to help your athlete be successful in their college gymnastics approach? Or alternatively, what did you WISH had been done?
Any advice can you offer...
I thought it was a rule now, that colleges can’t send letter or anything until the girls are 14. My daughter received a letter a couple weeks ago and it just has me wondering
Hi all!
A parent at our gym said today something that got me thinking. She had stated that in order for a gymnast to:
get a college scholarship she would need to be a level 10 by 14
And
To get to the Olympics she would need to be a level 10 by 10
Now I'm curious if anyone knows more...
Does anyone know a typical training schedule for college athletes? Meaning-- Do they take time off after a competitive season? If so how long? Can anyone point us in the right direction to read this? My daughter's doctor is requiring a 6 week break after her competitive season and you can...
Parents and coaches of collegiate gymnasts - I have questions for you all regarding summer training. What does training look like for your DD or college gymnast while they are home for the summer? Do they train with their former JO teammates? Are they part of a separate college training group...

Does anyone have recommendations on "home" workouts that can be done in a college dorm? I know some stretching and flexibility, but I'm working towards a back handspring, and hoping to work on back hip circle while stuck in a campus quarantine and blizzard, simultaneously. I live in a 4-room...

I'm looking for a high performance camp or a college gymnastics camp for the summer of 2021, which I know may be hard to find with the pandemic. I would like to find something in Idaho, Washington, Montana, or Oregon. Does anyone know of any that are planned? Thank you!
Apologies for a question that likely seems stupid, but I don’t know the answer so ..... I think it would be fun (especially in these times when we are not out and about as much) to get into watching women’s college gymnastics. The problem is, I don’t know how/where to find it. Is there a...
Hi all, I have searched the forum regarding a discussion on how parents approach academic planning for their DDs and college with no success. My DD is in 7th grade currently and competing lv 9. While I know my child is capable, we (my wife and I) are planning as if she will not get an athletic...
What's the news from other parents with College gymnasts? We jsut got word that DDs season was just scrapped. We were expecting it to happen, with the other colleges in D3 foregoing their seasons but were holding out on a little hope for at least some virtual meets. Still hoping they will be...
The light bulb finally came on at USAG....about a year late, but at least there is an initiative. Develop men's programs in college athletic departments outside of Power 5 football universities.
