“I chose gymnastics because it has always been a sort of sanctuary for me when things in my life didn’t go the way I expected them to.” Kayli Boozer has been turning heads with her standout performances, proving she’s a powerhouse on the mat. With her recent performance for Michigan University, she is a reckoned force, and why not? Three days, three career bests. Starting with a near-perfect score on beam—9.950 against Ohio on January 31, 2025. Another was on February 9, 2025, with a second 9.900 against Nebraska. And if this wasn’t enough, on March 7, 2025, she delivered an impressive 9.900 on vault against Oklahoma.
Like most athletes, Kayli has had full support from the two pillars of her life, her parents. With her professional life, every fan must be curious to know about her personal life as well. So, who are the parents behind this rising collegiate athlete?
Who Is Kayli Boozer’s Father?
Kayli Boozer’s father is Stuart Boozer, and it is very clear that his athletic determination and resilience have transcended into Kayli. How, you may ask? Well, Stuart used to play baseball at Southern Arkansas University. Hence, Stuart Boozer isn’t new to the world of competitive sports. Before Kayli took center stage in gymnastics, Stuart carved out his own athletic journey as a baseball player.
Papa Boozer keeps his social media on Facebook under his name. A proud alum of Rockford High and Grand Rapids Community College, he’s put down roots right there, in Michigan. You’ve got to keep the good times rolling!
Stuart’s experience in collegiate athletics likely gave Kayli a sense of discipline. Though Stuart Boozer’s life remains largely private, his influence on Kayli’s athletic career is undeniable. And it is safe to say that Stuart’s presence has played a crucial role in Kayli’s journey. But what about Kayli’s mother?
Who Is Kayli Boozer’s Mother?
While Kayli’s father has an athletic background, her mother, Ruby Boozer, remains a more private figure. Though the information is scare on her, one thing is certain: as a mother, Ruby has always been Kayli’s ride-or-die.
On February 9, 2025, Boozer took to Facebook, bursting with pride like a firework on the Fourth of July! She cheered on Michigan’s victory over Rutgers and Kent State, singing the team’s praises and tipping her hat to the incredible support system that keeps them soaring high. “Michigan gets another win today! (vs Rutgers and Kent State) thankful for team moms that are so thougjtful to take videos for me! Kayli got herself another beam title (tied for first with fellow teammate, Jenna)” She also dropped an “ETA: she was supposed to exhibition vault tonight but didn’t and when I asked her about it, she said she wasn’t feeling well “
Hard work was second nature to Kayli Boozer. Whether mastering routines or hitting the books, she balanced it all like a pro, graduating in the top 25% at Pleasant Grove High and earning National Honor Society honors. Given that she hails from Texarkana, Texas, and her father played collegiate baseball in the U.S., it is likely that they are American. With a bright future ahead, the Michigan star is not just performing on the gymnastics mat but making it count.
