Rebecca Bross

Since September 2013, Rebecca has been a coach at Iarov Elite Gymnastics in Dallas, Texas.

In the Summer of 2012, Rebecca Bross competed in the Olympic Trials in hopes of making the Olympic team for London. She competed on the beam and uneven bars, finishing in last place on both. Despite an excellent routine on the first night of competition, Rebecca fell three times off the bars on Night 2 and was instructed by her coach to stop mid-routine. As a result of her low scores, particularly on the uneven bars — an area in which National Team Coordinator Márta Károlyi stated that the women's team would need strong competitors — Rebecca did not make the main Olympic team, nor was she named as an alternate. Sports commentators speculated that Rebecca' defeat at the Trials would likely be a career-ending one because of her previous injuries and age.

Rebecca has not officially announced retirement, but she has not competed since the Olympic Trials in 2012 and is currently not training. She is regarded by some gymnastics fans as "one of the most unfortunate and unluckiest gymnasts" because of the injuries she suffered. In the four-year period from 2008–12, she incurred four injuries, including a broken foot, dislocated knee and other ankle and knee injuries that could have been serious.

During Night 2 of competition at the 2011 Visa Championships, Rebecca dislocated her right kneecap during a third-rotation vault. Because of the injury, Rebecca sat out of competition for the remainder of the 2011 season. Despite this, she earned a second-place finish on floor exercise, with a two-night total of 29.50. She also placed eighth on beam (27.6).

As of 2011, Bross performed the following skills on these apparatus:

In March 2010, she won the all-around at the American Cup. Rebecca won every event with the exception of the vault, which was won by Aly Raisman. In April, she won the senior all-around title at the Pacific Rim Championships in Melbourne, Australia. At the 2010 Visa Championships, Rebecca finished Day 1 with a two-point lead. On Day 2, she finished with a three-point lead, clinching the event to become the 2010 national champion. She was selected for the women's team for the 2010 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Rotterdam, Netherlands. There, she helped the United States win a silver medal behind the newly dominant Russian team. In the all-around, after a fall on beam, she bounced back on floor to get the bronze medal, scoring a 15.233 — the highest score given on floor to any women in the entire meet. Russia's Aliya Mustafina was the winner, and China's Jiang Yuyuan was the silver medalist. In event finals, Rebecca clinched the bronze on the uneven bars and tied with China's Deng Linlin for the silver on the balance beam behind Romania's Porgras.

On July 25, 2009, at the Covergirl Classic in Des Moines, Iowa, Rebecca competed on the uneven bars, scoring a 13.150 (.050 better than her teammate Ivana Hong), but was unable to compete on floor, beam or vault because of an ankle injury suffered during practice a few days earlier. She competed her bars routine without a dismount, thus lowering her overall score.

In August 2009, Rebecca finished third all-around behind Bridget Sloan (first) and Ivana Hong (second) at the U.S. National Championships. Rebecca also placed third on balance beam and second on floor to end a successful first senior Nationals.

Rebecca was able to compete in some Classics and Invitationals in early 2008. She competed with WOGA teammate Nastia Liukin at the Pacific Rim Championships, where she won gold medals in the all-around and on beam, bars and floor. She sat out the rest of the year because of a broken foot.

Rebecca Bross first qualified to Junior International Elite in 2005, when she also qualified to her first U.S. Nationals. She placed 16th all-around and earned a spot on the national team. She then competed in a few international assignments over the next year. At the 2006 U.S. Nationals, Rebecca placed fourth all-around, which also qualified her to the Junior Pan American Games Team. In 2007, she was again selected for the Pan American Games team. She finished second all-around, behind teammate Shawn Johnson. At the 2007 U.S. Championships, Rebecca won her first national championships title, despite a fall. She later won the Junior Japan Invitational.
