Anyway you don't have to be 16 years old to compete in the Olympics, that is only gymnastics that has that rule. The international governing bodies make the rules for their own sports and the IOC enforces them and of course organizes the Olympics. The national olympic committee's have their own recuriting methods. So there is no rule that you must be 16 but check out the site on how to get into competitions.
