As a high school gymnast you should be aware that the standard at college level is very high. I would recommend that you attend a few meets to gauge the actual intensity at this level. Remember that only the absolute top players will be approached with offers. Don't just concentrate on the top division 1 colleges, many of these larger schools usually have a large number of potential recruits. The competition is fierce, unless you are a blue chip gymnast you wont receive scholarship offers. There is nothing wrong with smaller division I or division II  colleges. What would you rather have, a partial or full gymnastic scholarship at a DII school or the offer of a walk on at one of the top schools? At the end of the day its your education that's important. Most college gymnastics camps provide technical instruction and video analysis from college coaches and current student-athletes that come from from both the women's and men’s gymnastics programs.

When the Roman's conquered Greece, they found that gymnastics was very valuable in their military training.  But after the fall of the Roman Empire, gymnastics vanished for hundreds of years.

Second Rotation By Jeremy Beck  When I was hit by the car, it was only a mere 4 days after Flip Fest. And there I had learned the skill in which he so firmly believed I could do - the double back. But not only had I done it on high bar, but on rings, and on tumble track, and even on the rod floor. Pommels you don’t even do back flips and hell no to doing them on vault and P-Bars.

One of the traditions, of course, is for the President to throw out the opening pitch for baseball. I'm going to do so for the Cards. I was talking to Phil Niekro coming in. My arm is a little sore. (Laughter.) I was getting suggestions on how to throw a knuckler.
