I have noticed that (someone correct me if I am wrong) the system used at gymnastics gyms is to have a bunch of kids training at their level, and to have the coaches hand pick the kids that are put on the competition teams for each level.
At dance studios, it seems as though kids take classes in whatever dance style(s) they want, and can audition for/be pulled up for that studio's competition team.
So there is a pool of kids that are training and improving their skills without the pressure of competition. Why don't schools and all star gyms have that? (Or is that the reason as to why some schools have competitive Varsity teams but noncompetitive JV teams?)
