Squad question

[Lss17]

Hi can anyone give me experience of squad level at a young age. My daughter is 4 and at pre school. She has been doing gymnastics in a rec class for about 2 months and has been offered a place on the squad.
Any advice would be great thanks

Depends very much on the club, but at that age they will probably be focussing on shapes and strength

It should be low level, no competing until aged 6 typically and that's only in small comps. Lots of strength and conditioning type exercises. It's very early days it doesn't really ramp up until the year they turn 7, up to then it should be exploring how much she enjoys it. It all depends on your gym, is it a large one turning out lots of artistic girls? Ours only selects a very few to do elite gym, others in the development squad get moved into other types of gym offered or floor and vault squad.
