    Too old for Gymnastics
    Hi. Im 13 and started gymnastics about 3 months ago, but I had done gymnastics before when I was 4 or 5 Im about to move up to level 4 soon. Is there any chance for my gymnastics career. Im guessing I'll move up quick because I have all my skills for all events its all up to the head coach though. I just don't know if I'll go anywhere with my career. My ultimate goal is college gymnastics. PLEASE HELP!

    You won't be able to make a living as a gymnast. Rather, you will have to expand your talents into sports in general, possibly as a sports coach. Please look at this article in the current Occupational Outlook Handbook:

    Athletes, Coaches, Umpires, and Related Workers

    Thanks. Oh and another thing I wouldn't be the oldest one on the level 4 team, and I had done gymnastics for 4 or 5 years before. Thanks for the response and I'll definitely take a look thank you. I also like acting so I could pursue that. :)

    You might not be doing gymnastics or live off it but you are never too old for Gymnastics!
