Gymnastics and education in the United States

Gymnastics in the United States is really for the happy few, the crème de la crème. The ones that only have one goal in mind, which is a gold medal at the Olympics. To become a gymnastics student-athlete in the United States, you need to have extraordinary talent and incredible motivation to maximize your potential. The bar to become a gymnastics student-athlete in the United States is very high, as only 63 universities offer gymnastics in combination with study.

Being a gymnast means having the strength to hold on and the courage to let go

The structure of gymnastics in the United States

The gymnastics college season runs from January to April. There are 15 meets in total, which means you will practice less and more game time. The college association only allows 20 hours of practice a week. In comparison, professional gymnasts which perform in the Olympics typically practice 40 hours for one run. With women’s gymnastics in the NCAA, the traditional 10-system is used. Gymnasts start with a 10.0 and work their way down. A 9.95 is therefore still a near perfect store.

Perfect combination between gymnastics and study

As a student-athlete you are absorbed in the sporting environment on a daily basis. You practice, travel and play games on an elite level. And in between all these sessions and games, you have access to the best facilities and specialists that make sure you maintain and improve your condition levels.

Besides the busy sports schedule, your study is demanding as well. As a student-athlete you will need great discipline for starters. Together with your academic advisors and coaches you will be developing your own schedule, which allows you to perform on the pitch and in the classroom.
