As a parent of a collegiate gymnast, I have to give kudos to the team trainers for their dedication and expertise in keeping our daughters healthy and strong! Many gymnasts would not be able be able to compete or stay in the sport without the help of the trainers and their support staff. Thank you and God bless!

achilles tears seem to be common in college gym as well, not nearly as much as other sports. same with labrum (no idea how to spell that) tears. I've heard of quite a few gymnasts tearing that.

I was thinking it would be either lower back or ankles! I guess in college they see a lot of lower back injury, especially from former elites I bet.
