you have to be 14 to enter your self in the Olympics.
There is not age limit, per se. If you can make the team, you can go.
Yes,they can.Im sure
no not at all you just need to work really hard
You can start whenever you want to, some girls are even 2 or 3 years old when they start training. I started when I was like 2 and a half years old :-).
The sport is millenia old, but the first international competition was a men's event at the 1896 Athens Olympics. Women did not compete in the Olympics until the second Olympiad, Paris 1900, and only 22 women competed, and none of them in gymnastics. Women's gymnastics did not really exist until the 1920's, and that was primarily calisthenicss demonstrations.
Shawn's parent put her in a gymnastics class when she was 3 because she had so much energy and she really liked gymnastics and continued with it.

Luigina was 11 years, 302 days old when she won silver with the Italian team in women's team all-around gymnastics at the 1928 Games in Amsterdam.
ive seen as young as 14. The minimum age for gymnastics is 16 (but nobody told the Chinese).
Many competitive gymnasts are older than 12. All of the gymnasts that compete in the Olympics are examples of this.
No, Tom took part in the 2008 Olympics also. He was one of the youngest to take part being only 14-years-old.
