The fact that this is your re-climb is fine. It could be that the time away was what you needed to relight your fire and push you to excel, rather than burning out. Svetlana Boginskaya retired for three years before coming back to the sports…you’re doing it at a younger age. But if you only do this for 9th grade and decide that no, you really are done with gymnastics, then you can do Mock Trial in 10th-12th grades, or some other extracurricular that you find particularly interesting. Women’s gymnastics tends to have a very short window for serious athletes. Participate in it for as long as you enjoy it.
