National head coach Andrei Rodionenko says he feels optimistic about the next four years, based on the number of gymnasts who are showing promise. He says that the team strategy for both men and women is to prepare two teams each who can compete for places at the Olympics. It is likely that the excellent competition facilities in Kazan will host another gymnastics competition for the Russians in 2018, adding that they had all enjoyed their time there.
Rodionenko went on to say that obviously Dalolyan and Kapitonova had done well here but he isn't ready to name the teams for Euros (!). A decision will be made based on performance in training over the next four weeks.
