We gathered there to hold our first TC meeting of 2016. The main task of the meeting was a discussion with Natalia Kuzmina, President of the FIG RG-TC. She shed her light on the new qualification system for the Olympic Games, which will commence with the Tokyo 2020 Games, we discussed the "Aspiring to create a performance environment for Rhythmic Gymnastics to flourish in the UK" preparation of the test event in Rio and the new Code of Points for the next Olympic cycle 2017-2020. The first draft of the new Code of Points was presented to us and Mrs Kuzmina asked for our remarks, especially concerning the junior programme which we will happily provide. Our two next TC meetings will be in Holon, the first from 14 to 17 April, when we will draw the starting order for the European Championships, and the second during those Europeans from 12 to 21 June.
