Introduction The 9th World Games in Cali, Colombia is the largest multi-sport event in 2013. The World Games provide a unique setting for thousands of athletes from different sports and countries to join in a celebration of unity and friendship. Many people call the Games "The Olympics for the non-Olympic sports/disciplines”. The Games are held quadrennially in the years following the Olympic Games but this is the first time that they will take place in South America. Athletes from 38 sports will compete over 11 days in Colombia’s third largest city, Cali, which hosts the multi-sport Games together with two other municipalities in the Cauca Valley, in western Colombia. The Opening Ceremony will be held on 25 July, which is the day Cali celebrates its 477th birthday. The organisers are preparing to seize the moment to promote the full breadth of sports to the world, and to bring about significant change to the nation, region and cities. The Organising Committee is committed to paying particular attention to environmental friendliness in all its actions. Cali brings considerable experience as an organiser of major sporting events to the challenge of staging The World Games. In 2008 the city was host to the Colombian national multi-sport games with over 6,000 participants. The city was also an acclaimed host to the Pan-American Games and hundreds of large-scale international championships in the past. The most recent major event held there – in December 2009 – was the UCI Track Cycling World Cup. Cali and its partner cities in the Cauca Valley have the necessary infrastructure to accommodate The World Games. The World Games are governed by the International World Games Association (IWGA) and organised by a Local Organising Committee. While the International Olympic Committee grants its patronage to all editions of The World Games, and while the IWGA explicitly accepts and adheres to all principles in the Olympic Charter, the multi-sport games differ in one important aspect from the Olympics - the host is never required to build facilities or extend upon available infrastructure for the sake of The World Games alone. Ideally, the event is to be staged at existing venues, in appropriately sized facilities that have been planned or built regardless of the candidate host bidding for the event. This condition influences the composition of The World Games programme. Not all sports necessarily feature in every edition. Existing infrastructure and venues in and around the host city are the determining factor in the selection of sports to the Official Sports Program. 3 2.

Gymnastics disciplines Gymnastics is one of the major sports featured at the World Games and is represented by four disciplines - Trampoline: Synchronised trampoline - men and women Double mini trampoline (DMT) - men and women Tumbling - men and women Acrobatic Gymnastics: Individual – men and women Mixed Pairs Women’s Trio Men’s Fours Rhythmic Gymnastics: Individual apparatus Aerobic Gymnastics: (individual - men and women Mixed Pairs Trios Groups Aerobic Step Aerobic Dance Overall number of medal events: 22 Participating gymnasts: Over 300 gymnasts from 33 countries. Gymnastics disciplines venue: El Pueblo Coliseum The official Competition Draw was held at the FIG headquarters in Lausanne (SUI) on Thursday, 13 June 2013. Please click here to view a copy. The qualification process for each of the disciplines at the World was determined from the rank at the preceding World Championships. 5 4. British representation at the 2013 World Games Trampoline, Double Mini Trampoline and Tumbling: Qualification from the World Championships held in 2011. Great Britain qualified the maximum number of gymnasts in all disciplines; TRA – Men and Women’s Synchro TUM – Individual Men and Individual Women DMT – Individual Men and Individual Women Acrobatics: Qualification from the World Championships held in 2012. Great Britain qualified a maximum number of participants in each of the partnerships; Women’s pairs, Men’s pairs, Mixed Pairs, Women’s Group and Men’s Group. Unfortunately Great Britain does not have a current men’s partnership and therefore in Colombia we will compete in all partnerships except Men’s Group that was reallocated to the next highest ranked Federation. Rhythmic and Aerobics: Although Great Britain qualified for the Olympic Games in Rhythmic with the availability of a host country place, neither aerobics nor rhythmic qualified in their respective World Championships in 2012 for the World Games and therefore Great Britain will not be represented within these two disciplines. 6 5.

  • A Different Perspective for Coaching and Training Education According to Score Changes During Rhythmic Gymnastics European Championships
    International Education Studies; Vol. 14, No. 5; 2021 ISSN 1913-9020 E-ISSN 1913-9039 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education A Different Perspective for Coaching and Training Education According to Score Changes During Rhythmic Gymnastics European Championships Berfin Serdil ÖRS1 1 Department of Coaching Education, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Aydin Adnan Menderes University, Aydin, Turkey Correspondence: Berfin Serdil ÖRS, Department of Coaching Education, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Aydin Adnan Menderes University, 09100, Aydin, Turkey. E-mail: [email protected] Received: December 30, 2020 Accepted: February 26, 2021 Online Published: April 25, 2021 doi:10.5539/ies.v14n5p63 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/ies.v14n5p63 Abstract Rhythmic gymnasts repeat elements thousands of times which may put a risk on gymnasts’ health. It is necessary to protect the current and future health conditions of young gymnasts, especially in the growth process. There is a lack of knowledge about training education on rhythmic gymnastics. To suggest innovative changes, the current study aimed to analyze the scores (D, E, and total scores) of the first 24 gymnasts competing in 34th and 36th Rhythmic Gymnastics European Championships (ECh). Research data were collected from 24 rhythmic gymnasts’ scores, from the 34th ECh and 36th ECh. Difficulty (D), Execution (E), and total scores for hoop, ball, clubs, ribbon were analyzed. Conformity of data to normal distribution was assessed with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Variables with normal distribution were compared by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA)/independent samples t-test and for variables not fitting normal distribution, Mann Whitney U/Kruskal Wallis H test was used.

  • 2021 Guide to Gymnastics Team
    At Spokane Gymnastics, the coaches focus on encouraging the development of strength, skill and character through gymnastics training in a positive environment. We strive to offer a program where every student has the greatest opportunity to succeed, no matter what their level or goal. We strive to balance teaching proper gymnastics skills, terminology and progressions in a fun environment where students are taught by breaking down the elements of the particular skills, hands- on “spotting” and training, low student-to-coach ratios and positive reinforcement. We believe that gymnastics is not only one of the most rewarding sports with unlimited benefits to other activities, but also FUN! Gymnastics not only increases strength, flexibility and balance, it is also encourages hard work, discipline and determination. Women's Artistic Gymnastics There are four events in Women's Artistic Gymnastics – Vault, Uneven Bars, Balance Beam and Floor Exercise. Although most sports have seasons, gymnastics is a year-round commitment for athletes at the upper levels. Vault A successful vault begins with a strong, accelerated run. The best vaulters explode off the springboard with tremendous quickness during the pre-flight phase of the vault. When the gymnast pushes off of the vault table (also informally referred to as the horse) judges look for proper body position and instantaneous propulsion and explosive force.
