Vera Kiryashova to judge in Osijek

Russian coach Vera Kiryashova has been invited as a judge to the April stage of the Artistic Gymnastics World Cup, which will be held in Croatia. Kiryashova told TASS about this.


šŸ’¬"The first tournament I plan to work at after a long break will be held in Croatia in a month," Kiryashova said. "After that, I'm going to go to Qatar. I don't have any information yet whether I'll be the only judge from Russia at these tournaments."


The Artistic Gymnastics World Cup stage will be held in Osijek, Croatia, from April 11 to 13, and Doha will host the world stage a week later.


Kiryashova is one of three Russian judges who received neutral status from the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) in early March, which gives Russians and Belarusians the right to work at tournaments under the auspices of FIG. Elena Redyanova and Irina Savosina also have neutral status. She continues to work as part of the judging panels at international tournaments, as represented by the FIG Women's Technical Committee, international category judge Lyubov Viktorovna Burda

Ukraine Olympic Committee calls for IOC to review Melnikova's neutral status

 I can share with you the letter dated 30 April.  The image quality is poor, but if you take your time you will be able to read it.   The reason for the review is not only Melnikova's registration as a candidate in Voronezh's regional elections, but also some fundraising events she has taken part in; and a picture of her with a 'Z' symbol, from the early part of the war. It seems that since Russia withdrew its gymnasts from competition - just a few weeks ago - opinions have hardened in favour of the War.  Melnikova has retained her silence, but others in the gymnastics community are speaking out in favour of Russia.   I'll not support these ideas.  But it's very easy for governments to influence their people.  Britain left the European Union on the back of some very questionable campaigning by leading politicians only a few years ago.  Donald Trump's government meetings are a quagmire of sycophantic nonsense as he destroys the world econ...

The Ukraine War and Russian female gymnasts

  War and violence are taken to be the domain of men, in the main … but women suffer too. The Russian female gymnasts are showing a few bruises.    Our ā€˜new generation’ of Kalmykova, Vasilieva, Roschina, Andreeva and others look well trained, but the lack of opportunity for overseas competition must be a severe disappointment.   24 year old Melnikova has commented that her career has crossed some very interesting times … the doping scandal with all its uncertainty, leading to neutral competition status for the team, Covid and the postponement of competitions, if not a battle with the illness itself for some individuals; and, now, the war with Ukraine, leading to sanctions against Russian competitors.    Finally, Russia’s rather pointless decision to ban themselves from competition as a kind of ā€˜protest’ against the neutral status they were seeking for so many of their team members.   The fact that Melnikova could carry away individual and tea...

Sergei Lissin, Sports Express The Olympic champion will do everything to return. On December 7, 2024, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic champion in artistic gymnastics in the team event Victoria Listunova competed at the Voronin Cup, her first major tournament after the athlete sustained a back injury, which forced her to miss the BRICS Games. Then, in early February, she went to Italy to participate in the national club championship and scored 53.650 in the all-around at the very beginning of the season, the same as the Paris Olympic champion on the uneven bars Kaylia Nemur.
