Plot
 | This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. (May 2008) |
After another run-in with the law, rebellious 18-year-old Haley Graham (Peregrym), a retired gymnast, is given a choice between enrolling in Burt Vickerman's (Bridges) strict and demanding program for gymnastics (VGA) or a military institute. Haley's choice is to take the latter, but the judge decides to force her to enroll in the program against her wishes.
Haley was once considered one of the most talented gymnasts in the US. She made it to the World Championships, but she walked out of competition in the middle of the finals, costing the American team the gold medal.
What started out as a gymnastics competition turns into a small revolution for the rules and Haley. Her talents are recognized once more and her future seems to be set with numerous colleges offering her athletic scholarships to compete in NCAA gymnastics.
