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".

Who really won the WAG All Around?

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.  My, how I wish we could have seen a similar document for the Tokyo World Championships. I wonder if anyone can explain how, if the FIG's Code of Points is so objective and fair, it is possible to come up with two different results using two differ...

Viktoria Komova - back pain has forced me to step down

I awoke this morning to a very simple statement from Viktoria Komova, on her vk.com site, which Papa Liukin has translated (via the IG forum): 'Dear friends, fans, and gymnastics lovers. Unfortunately back pain isn't allowing me to train to my full potential and get ready for competitions. I've made the very difficult decision to stop training and take care of my health. I want to thank everyone for their support! Without your love and warmth it would've been more difficult to go all the way. Thanks everyone and see you soon! Love and kisses.' Well, first of all, good wishes and best of luck to Viktoria, who has struggled since 2012 to re-establish herself fully as a competitive gymnast, whose talent was so great that she secured gold on bars at two different World Championships, four years apart, whose career was littered with controversy, who must be allowed to live her life as she wishes.   I know that the 'gymternet' will now be overflowing...

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...
