Next Gen Elite is Evergreen Gymnastics' program for competitive-track athletes, built around USA Gymnastics' TOPS standards. Training starts as young as age four and carries the same elite, high-performance edge as our top-level athletes, scaled to where these gymnasts are developmentally. We're accepting applications for athletes ages 4-6 (with some flexibility for applicants on a case by case basis), beginning Fall 2026. Because this is a competitive commitment, the application below asks a few questions about your family's background and approach to training.

Your Parenting Style

When your child struggles to learn a new skill, which best describes your typical response?
I encourage them to keep trying and offer specific tips
I let them work it out on their own before stepping in
I suggest taking a break and coming back to it later
I remind them why the skill is worth the effort long-term
Which of the following are you prepared to commit to for this program? (Check all that apply)
If your child says they don't want to go to practice on a given day, what's most likely to happen?
They go anyway; attendance isn't optional outside illness/injury
We talk about why, and I decide based on the reason
I generally let my child decide day-to-day
It depends on how close we are to a competition
If your child breaks a team or gym rule (e.g., disrespecting a teammate, inappropriate meet behavior), what is your typical first step?
A conversation about what happened and why it matters
A consequence at home tied to the behavior
I let the coach handle it within the gym's system
It depends on the situation
Your child says they want to quit for the week after a hard practice. What's the most likely outcome?
We honor it. If they want to stop, we stop for now
We talk it through and decide together
We push through. Quitting isn't the answer to a hard day
Depends heavily on the reason they give
Your child cries after falling during a routine they've done successfully before. What's your first instinct?
Comfort them first, then talk about what happened once they're calm
Acknowledge the frustration briefly, then refocus on what to try next
Encourage them to shake it off and get back up right away
Ask them what they think went wrong before saying anything else
When your child says "I'm not good at this," you're most likely to say:
"It's okay to feel that way; this is hard."
"You're not good at this yet. Let's figure out what's next."
"You've gotten better before, you'll get better again."
Something else, depending on the moment
After a disappointing result or outcome (e.g., lost a game), what does your family typically do in the hours/days after?
Talk through what happened and identify what to work on
Give it space; we don't discuss it much unless they bring it up
Look for the positives first, then talk about growth areas
Varies a lot depending on the result and how they're feeling
