Although you are permitted to drop out of the Olympics, you truly should not unless it is totally unavoidable. The Olympics is the culmination of the recreational program every year and is part of our program. This is what the athletes having been working so hard for.
Don't regret removing your athlete from this big event, their peers will be talking about it and working toward it in each class!

Gymnastics Tip of the Month
MASTERING A HANDSTAND
Find Your Vertical Position: Starting against a wall: practice both walking feet up and kicking up.
Learn to Roll Out: Learn to roll out of a handstand. If you can’t roll safely, you won’t commit fully.
Practice Makes Perfect: Start with 5-10 attempts each practice session. Work on holding the handstand longer each time.
Safety Note: Use a panel mat and clear your practice space of any objects you might hit!
