How do you be on a gymnastics team?

Answer 1

Well, first you have to already be in gymnastics. Probably for at least a year. During this time, you will develop the minimum skills require to be on the level 4 (or in some gyms level 3) team which is the entry-level for competition. These skills require a round-off backhand spring on floor, a back and front hip circle on bars, a hand stand and dismount on the beam, an expression of good grace and form on each and possibly more. Your gym will have try-outs rather you know it or not. The coaches closely watch each gymnast and the ones that prove themselves to potentially be capable of doing well in competitions will be selected to be on the team.
