USA Pan American Squad Selection Camp Underway


The June women's national team training camp is underway at the Karolyi Ranch in Huntsville, Texas. The camp runs from June 1 to June 5 and at the end of the camp, the eight person Pan American squad will be announced.

At the next national team training camp June 29 - July 3, the five person Pan American team will be selected from the squad of eight. The 2015 Pan American Games will be held July 10-26, in Toronto, Canada (the artistic gymnastics events will run July 11-15).

At this week's camp, the gymnasts vying for a spot on the Pan Ams team will be verifying nearly full routines, according to USAG. The gymnasts who are not in the running for the Pan Ams team will verify half routines. All athletes attending the camp will continue to refine their technical execution, upgrade their dance preparation and participate in physical abilities testing.
