This may have been posted somewhere else, but I cannot seem to find it using my search terms, so here goes...
Is an elite track program necessary for a gymnast to reach elite level? DD's gym does not have an elite track as it is a smaller gym--11 optionals girls. I have been told by parents at bigger, 'powerhouse' gyms that DD has a load of talent and potential and she should really be in an elite track program (but I have absolutely no clue what this is exactly).
(If it matters, all her coaches are former Olympians/elite national team members).
