In just two short weeks, tons of international elites are going to graduate from the junior to senior ranks. I’m sure we can all recall the debuts of some of these kids, especially those who burst onto the scene with insane talent and potential, and now here they are, all grown up and age-eligible for senior international competition?!
Below are all of the active gymnasts born in 2006, listed in alphabetical order by country. Note that this list includes everyone who has competed at the national level in their respective programs, but many gymnasts listed are not on the national team and may not ever compete internationally. Additionally, while everyone on this list has competed within the past two years, there is a chance that some have possibly retired since last competing. We include everyone just in case, however, and you can feel free to let us know in the comments if we’ve missed anyone. Who are you most excited to see?
