Anon Not making the HS team

[Anonymous (04bf)]

I’m a freshman who tried out for varsity gymnastics this past week, but I didn’t make the team. I’m a XP training XD right now. I saw the barstool account for my HS’s gymnastics team and it seems like there are kids on the team who have never touched a vault or bars. This is my first time trying out for a team, so I don’t really know what coaches look for when selecting athletes. What are the additional factors and traits look for in athletes? Any tips or advice is appreciated!
