I don't think it is watered down, because we still have people like Beth Tweddle in the olympics and other internatinal comps. But it is not as competitive as in the USA and we don't have the intensive training. Plus this is university gymnastics, where some people are beginners as an extra hobby rather than going to University/College JUST to compete in gymnastics. I think it is just generally harder to find a gym that will go all the way to the top rather than being recreational.
i was there!! my old gym does this thing where we host english gymnasts then we go to england...i think it's adorable how english gymnastics is watered down.
its not, but you don't get sports scholarships to uk unis, its just a hobby. we have some top olympic athletes as well.
