The 2016 Florida Gators gymnastics team is to represent the University of Florida in the sport of Artistic gymnastics during the 2016 NCAA Division I women's gymnastics season. The Gators compete in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). They play their home games at the O'Connell Center on the university's campus in Gainesville, Florida. The 2016 season is the Gators' first under head coach Jenny Rowland.

Previous season

The 2015 Gators team came into the 2015 season ranked #1 in the Preseason Coaches Poll,[1] and finished the season with an 8–2–0 record – after losing against conference rivals Alabama (Jan. 23)[2] and Louisiana State (Feb. 20)[3] in away meets. Following the regular season, the Gators went on to place third at Conference Championships[4], and first at the NCAA Regional in Morgantown, West Virginia.[5] As a result, the Gators advanced to Nationals; their 33rd appearance at the tournament. After tying with Utah for first in Session I[6], the Gators were able to turn in a 197.850 in the Super Six, and were crowned 2015 National Champions[7] – the third time in the program's history; all of which have been back-to-back.[8] Additionally, Senior gymnast Kytra Hunter took the individual National floor title[9], as well as being represented with the Honda Award.[10]
