Elite Female Gymnasts at Two Olympic Games – Quality Or Luck? Delaš Kalinski S.: ELITE FEMALE GYMNASTS AT TWO OLYMPIC GAMES – QUALITY….. Vol. 9 Issue 2: 153 - 164 ELITE FEMALE GYMNASTS AT TWO OLYMPIC GAMES – QUALITY OR LUCK? Sunčica Delaš Kalinski Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Split, Croatia Original article Abstract Relatively small number of gymnasts participate at the Olympic Games and even smaller number participates at Olympic Games consecutively, due to numerous different reasons. Therefore, this paper aims are: 1) to determine the number of female gymnasts who participated in the C-I competition at Olympic Games held in 2012 and at Olympic Games held in 2016; 2) to determine characteristics and differences in results of consecutive participants at these two Olympic Games; 3) to determine differences between consecutive participants and other competitors at the afore defined competitions. It was found that 25 female gymnasts participated at two consecutive Olympic Games. From one to another Olympic Games, consecutive participants have numerically increase all scores; significantly increased Execution and Final Scores on the uneven bars; significantly decrease Execution and Final Score on the balance beam. Compared to other gymnasts from the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Games, consecutive participants had numerically higher values in all variables, but only some of them have been determined as significantly different. Consecutive participants confirmed the possibility of continuous quality of skills development in mid 20s. Keywords: consecutive participants, C-I competition, 2012-2016 Olympic Games, ANOVA. INTRODUCTION Being an Olympic athlete is a dream performances; Tucker (2011) believes that of many people and the aim of most elite superior performances can be achieved athletes. Different studies quote somewhat within a significantly shorter period of different time which is needed in order to time. achieve Olympic quality: Ericsson, It is often heard that in order to reach Charness, Feltovich and Hoffman (2006) high levels of ability, a person needs to and Gladwell (2009) state that it takes have an innate potential called talent. around 10 000 working hours to achieve Talent term for an aptitude, a special gift the Olympic quality; Arkaev and Suchilin of above-average ability in a certain area, (2009) state that it takes at least 8-10 years here in the area of sport motor actions, and to reach top artistic gymnastics quality in for the person possessing these abilities. In girls and 10-12 years in boys; Gibbons et regard to sport, three forms of talent can be al.

  • Ginnastica Artistica
    LA GINNASTICA ARTISTICA Ilenia Federica La ginnastica artistica è una disciplina della ginnastica e uno sport olimpico. L'atleta deve essere dotato di forza, velocità ed elevata mobilità articolare. Alcuni elementi, quelli principali, come la verticale, possono essere appresi anche in età adulta. STORIA DELLA GINNASTICA ARTISTICA La ginnastica artistica è uno sport dalle origini molto antiche.Le culture più importanti che la praticarono sono quella Cinese, quella Egizia e quella Micenea. Per quanto riguarda i Greci, la ginnastica fu prima praticata dai Dori. Però gli antichi avevano un altro concetto di ginnastica artistica: essi non la intendevano praticata con gli attrezzi, bensì basata sugli esercizi che corrispondono all'attuale atletica leggera, alla lotta, al pugilato. I Romani non accettavano la ginnastica perché la ritenevano propria degli schiavi o degli stranieri. Solo dopo il Mille la cultura fisica riacquistò importanza. Nel XIX secolo, F.L. Jhan inaugurò a Berlino la prima palestra pubblica all'aperto. Egli consigliò vari esercizi sulla corsa e sul salto, poi introdusse l'uso degli attrezzi, tra cui quattro femminili e sei maschili. In comune ne hanno due: il corpo libero e il volteggio. - CORPO LIBERO Il corpo libero (floor, FX) maschile prevede una serie di esercizi senza accompagnamento musicale o coreografia, a differenza di quello femminile. Si svolge su una pedana quadrata ampia 12x12 metri, con un metro di sicurezza intorno. - VOLTEGGIO Nel volteggio (valut, VT) il ginnasta corre lungo il tumbling che è lungo 25 metri, salta su una pedana posizionata davanti alla tavola e dopo aver appoggiato le mani sull'attrezzo esegue il volteggio vero e proprio.

  • Iveco Sponsors the Women's Artistic Gymnastics World Champion
    Iveco sponsors the Women’s Artistic Gymnastics World Champion, Vanessa Ferrari Iveco has announced its sponsorship of Vanessa Ferrari, who won the World Artistic Gymnastics Championship in Aarhus (Denmark), where she obtained, in addition to the gold medal in the overall women’s competition, a double bronze medal in the uneven bars and the floor exercise. Iveco will be backing Vanessa Ferrari starting from the Artistic Gymnastics European Championships on Saturday 28 April, and the company will support her up until the end of the 2008 Peking Olympic Games. The agreement, which also includes the Associazione Sportiva Brixia where Vanessa trains and competes, follows on from Iveco’s donation of land adjacent to its Brescia factory where Iveco Eurocargo vehicles are assembled, to the Municipality of Brescia for the new gym, which will be used by the Brixia sports association for its athletic and technical training. This sponsorship marks a major step for Iveco, whose company values are a perfect match for the values of the Brixia sports association and its athletes: performance, reliability, teamwork, an ability to keep promises and, most of all, a determination to achieve winning results. Iveco’s values are essential to achieving results, whether in sports or in business, regardless of the spirit and expression of the individual disciplines. As part of the sponsorship agreement, Iveco is also Vanessa Ferrari’s “Official Carrier”, and in this role the company will supply a specially prepared Daily Minibus, appropriately equipped, to the Brixia sports association for the team’s logistics requirements.
