[quote=Anonymous]I think the age depends on the gym. Our gym starts tracking kids as young as 3-4 and aims to have them competing by 6 or 7, so five is the prime age for preteam. A girl who starts competing at age 6, will reach level 10 no earlier than age 12 (repeating levels is inevitable and skipping levels is rare). Several years at level 10 are necessary before attempting to go elite. The girls are on a tight track as they need to be where they are going by 16. Boys have a lot more time to play with since they usually hit their peak around 20-21. [/quote]
