Georgia GymDogs

The Georgia GymDogs (officially the Georgia Bulldogs) is the women's gymnastics team of the University of Georgia. The team is part of NCAA Division I and competes in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). The GymDogs compete in Stegeman Coliseum in Athens, Georgia.

The GymDogs lead the nation with 10 NCAA Women's Gymnastics championship titles (including five consecutive wins from 2005 to 2009) and 16 SEC championships. The team was coached by Suzanne Yoculan from 1983 to 2009, Jay Clark from 2009 to 2012, Danna Durante from 2012 to 2017, and Courtney Kupets from 2017 to 2024.

The women's gymnastics program was started in 1973 with Melinda Airhart as the head coach, and the team competed in the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW). After the 1979–80 season, the team began competing in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) following the dissolution of the AIAW.

On July 1, 2009, Suzanne Yoculan retired after 26 years as head coach, and Clark, her assistant coach, took over as head of the program. In 2012, Clark was replaced by Durante. Courtney Kupets Carter took over the GymDogs in 2017. Cecile Canqueteau-Landi and Ryan Roberts were named co-head coaches in April 2024.

As of 2012, the team had won 10 NCAA Women's Gymnastics championships. As of 2012, it had also won 16 Southeastern Conference titles (1986, '87, '91, '92, '93, '94, '96, '97, '98, '99, 2001, '02, '04, '05, '06, '08) and 22 NCAA regional titles.

As of the end of the 2016 season, 20 Georgia gymnasts have won a total of 42 individual event championships.
