Organisations involved in the Russia Cup

 Via VK.com, Google translate


I have never seen information on the competition organisers before, except for in banners and posters. This reads to me as though the umbrella RGF, responsible for all gymnastics sports in Russia, is taking the lead.  There is also now an RGF whose sole responsibility is artistic gymnastics, but they aren’t mentioned.  


At the meeting of the organizing committee, all the nuances of the preparation and holding of a large-scale event were discussed. Novosibirsk is preparing to host the Russian Cup in artistic gymnastics 


The meeting was held in the regional government, under the leadership of Deputy Governor Valentina Dudnikova, with representatives of all ministries and departments. 


For Russian gymnasts, this tournament will be a significant event, as it is the main stage of selection for the national team for the upcoming major international starts. It will bring together the strongest representatives of the regional teams. 

About 20 representatives of the Russian national team will come to us. And also - athletes from Belarus. 


❗The grand opening of the competition is scheduled for April 22. 

The preliminary start time of the ceremony is 20.30. 

😉 A little later I will write the exact time and how to get to the opening. You can also cheer for our guys online. 


📌 The organizers of the Russian Cup are the All-Russian public organization "Russian Gymnastics Federation", the regional public organization "Federation of Artistic Gymnastics of the Novosibirsk Region". The competitions are held with the support of the Ministry of Physical Culture and Sports of the Novosibirsk Region, the State Autonomous Institution of Additional Education of the Novosibirsk Region "Sports School "Evgeny Podgorny Artistic Gymnastics Training Center", the State Autonomous Institution of the Novosibirsk Region "Directorate of Sports Events". General management is carried out by the Ministry of Sports of Russia, the All-Russian public organization "Russian Gymnastics Federation".

Virtual tour of Lake Krugloye

Ksenia from Russia wrote to me as follows : 'I decided to write about a little update on this site .  Suddenly you do not know but you may be interested in "The virtual gym" where you can see the training center for gymnastics at the "Round Lake" A very interesting thing if you want to look into what's inside.' She is right - it is fascinating - with tours of both the men's and women's gyms, pictures of the coaches and gymnasts, and all the different areas, including a reception with displays of awards and the rehabilitation and recovery facilities.  Take some time to click on the arrows and try out all of the different features.  It is in Russian but the tools are reasonably intuitive and if you have a basic grasp of the Cyrillic alphabet you can make sense of the whole. Scrolling round the panorama makes me feel a little bit dizzy and also gives a slightly distorted perspective to some of the views, which I think is a characteristic...

Simone and the others - results and reflections

In the end, it was as predicted : Simone and the others, with Simone's teammate, Alexandra Raisman, providing the back up.  I do not need to point out that, by definition, the Americans are scoring significantly higher marks than the rest of the field.  Congratulations to them! Aliya Mustafina finished in third place.  The 2012 bronze medalist led the competition after vault and uneven bars, but had a very nervous outing on beam that might have taken a less experienced gymnast out of the medals.  A bravura performance on floor brought Aliya back though to confirm her third place all around.  From her senior debut in 2010 to today, Mustafina has continuously set high standards of grace.    It is the first time since 2000 that a gymnast (Amanar) has medalled in the all around at two consecutive Olympics, and  if Aliya can medal on Saturday's uneven bars final, she will once again be Russia's biggest medal winner of the women's gymnastics.  Russ...

Mustafina, Melnikova and Afanasyeva - Russia’s three divas train together to the tunes of Michael Jackson

M elnikova, Mustafina and Afanasyeva take creative control at Round Lake.     You can see the video on Angelina Melnikova’s YouTube channel. They are discussing a new floor routine for Angelina; she wants to dance to Michael Jackson. Afanasyeva, 2012 Olympic medalist and a world champion on the floor, has been a choreographer for the national team for a few years now.    She says, ‘Gel, first we need to understand the plan—what we’re actually doing.’ They discuss how many tumbles Angelina will perform, and where the tumbles will come in the routine.    Angelina says, she likes ‘Billie Jean’, it’s her favourite … But Afanasyeva has other ideas, linking into the dance shapes she has seen in a video: ‘Thriller . Start with  Thriller . It begins with that image, right from the beginning when it starts.’    She shows us the dance. ‘I suggest taking a 1.5-minute or 1-minute segment of the dance directly.’ They promise to be in touch by email. ...
