The Glenbard West high school girl's gymnastics team has been around for many years. Carlos Fuentes is the current varsity coach along with coach Koscinski coaching the junior varsity team. During their season the team practices three hours a day six days of the week. They have many meets and invites, which consist of multiple varsity teams. The team mostly competes with the schools in the west suburban conference. Consisting of Addison Trail, Downers Grove North, Downers Grove South, Glenbard West, Hinsdale Central, Hinsdale South, Leyden, Lyons Township, Morton, Oak Park River Forest, Proviso East, Proviso West, Willowbrook, and York. They also have a district 87 meet where the team competes against the other three Glenbards, North, South, and East. There are over sixty teams in the Illinois High School Association also known as IHSA and only the top eight teams qualify for state. Glenbard West's girls gymnastics team went to state for the first time in 2005. They had individual qualifiers for the state meet before but that was the first year that the whole team had made it. The team has been progressively improving their skills and aiming for the common goal of making it to the state meet. The incoming teams have been breaking and re-breaking the school records. The current record held is a 146.2 which is a very high score considering that the highest possible score obtainable is a 160 which would consist of everyone scoring a perfect 10 on all the events. The Glenbard West girl's gymnastics team works extremely hard and strives to make improvements. They have a goal of someday winning the IHSA state meet.
