Gymnastics is the performance of systematic exercises with the help of some tools and equipment such as rings, bars, and other apparatus as a competitive sport.
Gymnastics is a sport that includes physical exercises that require
Balance
Strength
Flexibility
Agility
Coordination
Endurance
It involves the development of the arms, legs, shoulders, back, chest, and abdominal muscle groups. It not only develops us physically but also contributes to mental traits such as alertness, precision, daring, self-confidence, and self-discipline. It is a sport where your skill level definitely matters. Gymnasts are then competing for not only a limited number of spots on the team but a limited number of college scholarships under Athletic Scholarships that are solely meant for them.
Many coaches scout for good gymnasts at gyms that have become known for churning out impressive gymnasts. But, the best strategy is not to wait to be contacted. Have your coach send in footage of your best tumbling passes or bar work, as many gymnasts are “specialists” at a certain discipline rather than excelling in every aspect of gymnastics. Gymnasts who aren’t at the skill level to be accepted into a top gymnastics program but are still interested in keeping up with the sport on a club or intramural level should look into scholarships run by local teams and organizations. To be eligible for scholarships, gymnasts must also have minimum GPAs and maintain good grades throughout their time at their intended schools.
It is expected for the college gymnasts to compete in several disciplines. Discover your strengths as it will later help you to match them with what the college coaches need.
