NEXT STEPS:

1) Please email Rona Patterson at British to confirm you are accepting your place on the team. If you are declining a position for any reason, then please also contact Rona Patterson as a matter of urgency. 2) There is a verification event on 14th August 2020 in Crewe to confirm that the teams have reached the required performance standard to represent British Gymnastics. From this point, the Team’s representation for GBR at the European Championships will be confirmed.

FURTHER NOTES:

 All selected and conditionally selected gymnasts are part of ‘the team’. Conditionally selected gymnasts will be contacted separately about their conditions. Also note the GB team no longer selects ‘reserves’ and no gymnasts were selected on this basis. The unit leaders will select the most appropriate gymnasts from the team to compete at qualifications and finals. All gymnasts from a team are eligible for medals regardless if they compete on the day or not.  By the beginning of the August week-long camp and verification event, the Technical experts will be assigned to specific units.  Maintaining fitness during the national lockdown is of paramount importance. As a member of the national team all gymnasts are required to meet physical standards and performance targets to maintain their position on the GB team. Unit Leaders will have more details of the required training during the lockdown period.  Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, there is a degree of uncertainty surrounding all sporting events in 2020. As the TeamGym ECh is in mid-October, is currently optimistic for this event to run as scheduled. However, national and international directives to control the spread of the virus are out of the control of British Gymnastics. Therefore, we will continue to stay in close communication with European Gymnastics whilst preparing for the Championships. Should the event be postponed into 2021, there may be technical requirements that necessitate BG to re-evaluate the team selections. At present, this is not a consideration but nevertheless noting it is the responsible thing to do.
