The USA Gymnastics National Team Training Center will serve as the official training site for women's gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, trampoline and tumbling, and acrobatic gymnastics. It was also announced today that USA Gymnastics and Hilton Worldwide Announce Partnership Through 2012. Hilton Worldwide will help upgrade the amenities provided at the USA Gymnastics National Training Center at the Karolyi Ranch. In addition, Hilton Worldwide have created Team Hilton HHonors, a program that provides financial support to male gymnasts to help offset their training and living expenses while they pursue their Olympic dreams.

It's also because of NCAA eligibility rules. The Hilton HHonors team is only for non-NCAA (or former ncaa) male gymnasts. If current college gymnasts or even gymnasts who hope to someday compete in college were to accept sponsorship funding they would forgo their NCAA eligibility. The same goes for the girls.
