The Junior Olympics is a USA Gymnastics sanctioned event featuring the top male gymnasts in the country ages 11-18. Most, if not all of the 2016 USA Olympic Team will be competing at this event, so come watch the future of USA Gymnastics!
Many Junior Olympic champions have gone on to make the U.S. National Team and represent the United States in international competition and/or to compete in collegiate gymnastics. All of the members of the medal winning 2004 and 2008 U.S. Olympic Teams are past Junior Olympic National Championships participants, including Paul Hamm, 2004 Olympic all-around champion, and Jonathan Horton, 2008 Olympic horizontal bar silver medallist and 2010 World all-around bronze medallist.
