Rodionenko on sports development in Russia’s far east

By

‘Vladimir Putin approved a list of instructions following a meeting of the Presidential Council for the Development of Physical Culture and Sports. These included the creation on Russky Island and in Vladivostok of centers for martial arts, artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, hockey, swimming, boxing, a tennis academy and an athletics arena as part of a federal sports and training center for training Russian national teams.


💬 For a country of the size of Russia, it is important that in different regions there are educational and training centers that correspond to the most modern level of development of sports, including the highest achievements. The Far East needs such a center. We have repeatedly discussed the prospect of its creation, including within the framework of the Presidential Sports Council. I think this is very correct and timely,” Titov told Match TV.


💬We raised the issue of creating a base there for a very long time. This is a part of Russia where there are few gymnastics halls, and in general the Far East was away from artistic gymnastics. Now there are coaches there, the sport has begun to actively develop. We have Lilya Akhaimova from the Far East, but she became a top-level gymnast when she was transferred to the center of the national teams. In general, the conditions necessary for training high-level athletes did not exist there before. Therefore, we are very glad that such a training center will appear in the Far East; it is very much needed there. There is a large selection of people to work with. Artistic gymnastics will seriously improve in the Far East after the creation of this center, Rodionenko told Match TV.’

Melnikova withdrawn from Bundesliga

By
  Angelina Melnikova has issued a statement about her participation in the Bundesliga.     The mayor of Chemnitz has withdrawn the gymnast’s invitation to participate in the final.     Angelina’s words: ‘I didn't receive an invitation to the Bundesliga final. Unfortunately, the public attention and political discussions were much greater than the organizers expected. I am grateful to TSV Tittmoning-Chemnitz for the opportunity to participate in the semi-finals and, most importantly, for their respectful and kind attitude. In Germany, I received tremendous support from spectators, athletes, coaches, and referees. A sports arena is a place where athletes meet each other and demonstrate their abilities in their favorite sport. Sport provides the opportunity to showcase the results of their hard work and athletic prowess. Everyone deserves equal opportunities in all areas of life, and every athlete deserves to compete equally in the sports arena and fulfill their dr...

Remembering last summer - Nelli Kim, her judges and Viktoria Komova

By
In view of Nelli Kim's recent interview , Lupita and I thought it timely to revisit the performance of some of the WTC President's judges over past competitions ... this article from 27th August 2012 is reposted here, as a reminder. You will find a link to the FIG's newly published book of results at the Olympic Games here .  This year, they have broken down the judge's execution scores so you can see exactly how each judge evaluated the gymnasts' performances.  It makes for interesting reading - if only I had more time to analyse each judge's marking.  A skim reading already highlights multiple inconsistencies in individual judges' marks and makes you wonder why they bother with the jury at all. I have taken the time to look at the reference judges' scores for the top four in the women's all around.  The FIG explains here what their role is, and how they are selected.  I even used my calculator, which is a risky thing in my hands.  M...
