INDIANAPOLIS, September 4, 2019 – Twenty-three junior and senior women are headed to Sarasota, Fla., and EVO Athletics for the September U.S. Women’s National Team Training Camp on Sept. 5. For the seniors, this camp is in preparation for the World Team Selection Camp later this month, while it is a working camp for the juniors.

Under women’s High-performance Team Coordinator Tom Forster’s watchful eye, the seniors will verify routines on all four events in advance of the World Team Selection Camp, Sept. 21-24. The juniors will focus on new skills and connections for next year.

“This camp our focus will be collaboration,” said Forster. “Our national staff will work closely with the senior coaches and athletes as they prepare for the World Championships selection later this month.
