Turning Senior in 2026

Elena Colas, Maïana Prat, Lola Chassat, and Perla Denechere In a couple of weeks, dozens of international elites will graduate from the junior to the senior ranks. I’m sure we can all recall the debuts of some of these kids, especially those who burst onto the scene with incredible 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 2010, listed in alphabetical order by country. Note that this list includes everyone who has competed at the national level in their respective programs, but some 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?
