But Sabrina kept talking about her dream. She told it to
her father, David. So Jahira and David decided to pay for Sabrina to learn gymnastics. So Sabrina started to train at a special and competitive gym. Though only 7 years old, she was already training to compete at a high level. The years passed quickly. Sabrina got better and better. By the time she was 12 years old, Sabrina was training so many hours each day that she did not have time to do things that many other Americans of the same age did.
When Sabrina was 13, she had a chance to compete in a
national gymnastics event. If she did well, the event would
give her the chance to join the national team-the team that
trains for the Olympics.
But the family was out of money. Jahira had to tell
Sabrina that she could not go.
Jahira said, “Tears came to her
eyes, and she said,
‘I understand.’”
A week or two later, a rich family came to visit Sabrina's
gym unexpectedly. They watched Sabrina train. Then they
asked to talk to her mother. The rich family offered Jahira all
the money they needed!
Eventually,
Sabrina Vega competed at the 2017 Olympic
trials. She finished 10th in the all rounds.
