[quote=Anonymous]My daughter was a competitive gymnast for a decade. If your daughter intends to stay with gymnastics, you are not going to want to look for a spring sport because the majority of the competitive season is between December and May. Summer swim was a good complement to Gymnastics. It is not super intense and is a low impact activity. A bonus is that your daughter may find she’s very good at fly because of her strong muscles. Diving uses a lot of of the same skills and the coach will love her pointed toes. There is a bit of a difference, but a number of gymnasts do both and there are more opportunities for diving at the collegiate level, based on what we had seen. There are also a few who managed to make track work, but there is a good amount of overlap in the spring and that can be really rough on the body.[/quote]
