Updated - Nanning World Gymnastics Championships 2014 - BBC TV coverage

By

Yay!  First news available now of the BBC TV coverage of the Nanning Championships.  Starting on Tuesday 7th October at 3.00 pm until 5.15 pm BST, BBC2 will be covering the men's team final.  Gymnastics will be covered at the same time every day of that week.  Still waiting to hear what the weekend schedule will be. 

Given the time difference between Nanning and London it looks as though this is delayed live coverage of the events.  If there is further news about live red button coverage I will update this page.  

Further live coverage of event finals has now been confirmed : 

BBC1 on Saturday 11th October, 2.20 to 3.50pm
BBC2 on Sunday 12th October, 4.00 to 5.30pm

Red button coverage begins at 12pm on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and 12.35 on Friday.  Saturday and Sunday times yet to be published.

In the United States, USAGymWorlds.com also has live streaming of podium training and qualifications. This coverage is exclusive to the USA unless you can find IP protection.  Times are US eastern.

Does anyone know if there will be live streaming available anywhere?  Please leave any broadcast information you have in the comments - this will be helpful to everyone, particularly those in territories not covered by the BBC.

    USAG always does a live feed of PT, TF, EF. But i know this is geoblocked so if you know this is a problem every year please use a IP address changer from now. Look around and find a good one so you're not panicking the day of competition.

    Here are details of the stateside livestream of podium training and quals, courtesy of USAgymworld.com :

    Dear Gymnastics Fans…
    Dear gymnastics fans,

    Last year, we delivered live webcasts from the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Antwerp. It was the first time – as far as I can remember – that live coverage of podium training or qualification had ever been available in the United States.

    We want to once again deliver live coverage of both podium training and qualification from 2014 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Nanning, China. The biggest challenge in delivering this kind of coverage is going into a venue that we are unfamiliar with and working out any issues we may encounter.

    Why am I telling you this? First, so that (hopefully) you’ll bear with us as we navigate any technical issues we may run into – this will be especially important during podium training. And second, so you can plan. Here’s the schedule of sessions we hope to stream from Nanning:

    Sept. 30
    5-7:15 a.m. ET – Men’s Podium Training, Sub. 9

    Oct. 1
    6-7:45 a.m. ET – Women’s Podium Training, Sub. 5

    Oct. 3
    2:30-4:45 a.m. ET – Men’s Qualifying, Sub. 3 (China)
    8-10:15 a.m. ET – Men’s Qualifying, Sub. 5 (Great Britain)
    11:30 p.m. – 1:45 a.m. ET – Men’s Qualifying, Sub. 7 (Japan)

    Oct. 4
    5-7:15 a.m. ET – Men’s Qualifying, Sub. 9 (USA)
    9-10:45 p.m. ET – Women’s Qualifying, Sub. 1 (Russia)

    Oct. 5
    6-7:45 a.m. ET – Women’s Qualifying, Sub. 5 (USA)
    11 p.m. – 12:45 a.m. ET – Women’s Qualifying, Sub. 8 (China)

    Oct. 6
    3:30-5:15 a.m. ET – Women’s Qualifying, Sub. 10 (Romania, Great Britain)

    Live coverage of the medal rounds will be available once again through our partnership with Universal Sports. Fans will be able to watch a feed on USAGymWorlds.com, for free and without authentication, beginning at 7 a.m. ET on Oct. 7 with the men’s team final.

    One note, as the United States rights holders for the Worlds, all of our coverage will only be available stateside.

    Hi Queen Elizabeth, it looks like it has been updated in that the US does plan to cover live feeds of each of the WAG qualifying sessions that has a major team to focus on, so this includes the first session with Russia! For anyone not stateside that knows how to use a different IP to get access I hope everyone gets to watch and that the info they provided is correct! fingers crossed =)

    Feed geoblocking by USA Gymnastics is a real disgrace. Could they explain how that would hurt anybody's business if they authorised gymnastics videos all around the world ?
    This is so stupid...

      This won't be USA Gymnastics' decision. Whoever assigns broadcast rights (be it the FIG, the local organising committee or whoever) will not want to give away exclusive worldwide streaming rights in case other bodies or institutions come forward, wanting to transmit in ither territories. It is a simple matter of money making.

      I share your sense of frustration, however, that these broadcasts are nit made available to us legitimately, worldwide. As a ling time fan I would be happy to pay the FIG a modest subscription to secure access to online streaming of podium training, quals, and World Cup competitions that are nit covered in my territory. Surely such an arrangement can't be far off?

We are satisfied - Aliya Mustafina

By
Photo credit: RGF An Allsport interview today with Aliya Mustafina : http://www.allsportinfo.ru/index.php?id=83075 'I think that we are to be congratulated on this bronze medal, we are more satisfied than frustrated', said Aliya Mustafina. 'We were a new team, all the girls are young, and it's their first time in such a serious competition.  I think today we performed to the best of our ability.  Yes, we have had two falls today - on the uneven bars and balance beam.' 'The young girls failed  psychologically, but  the first time you compete on the senior podium - it's not very easy.  No  one is sad.  I  am very pleased with such a performance.  Everything  was fair enough, maybe not everywhere and in all things, but overall it was quite as expected, both our rivals, and the judging.' 'I began to experience more pain in the ankle - continued Aliya Mustafina. - To do the dismounts I had to muster all my strength and clench my teeth.  ...

By

This was reported to TASS by the senior coach of the national team Valentina Rodionenko.

"The athlete has been plagued by injuries in recent years, which made it very difficult for her to endure the training loads that the members of the national team experience. Gerasimova is a very honest and very responsible person. That's why she came and said that she wants to end her career and compete only in student competitions." "I know how responsible and hardworking this girl is, so we suggested that she think about becoming a coach of the youth team on one of the apparatuses in the future. We will count on her.

Listunova interview

By
 Google translate from VK.com -  Match TV talked to Victoria Listunova about the Olympic summer without participating in the Games, recovery, and memories of Tokyo three years later. We are copying several fragments, and the full interview is available on the Match TV website ❓ Victoria, how are you feeling? How was your recovery from the injury? Was it an old problem or some kind of force majeure? 💬 The injury may have been cumulative, it was not immediately revealed, I am now trying to train in the same volume as before. I am restoring my program. It took a long time for rehabilitation. From April until mid-summer, I was completely without loads, so that the injury would heal and never bother me again. But it is not like I was resting all summer. I was constantly present at the training camps, went through all the recovery procedures. At first there was complete rest, then I trained as much as possible without pain. So there were trainings, but in a minimal mode. In the sum...
