Many have asked, many a time:
Sooner or later, the small nation of Romania will be unable to compete with the much larger superpowers of women’s gymnastics.
Sooner or later, the podium teams should be China, USA, Russia. Simply due to population.
Russia just announced new National Team coaches. Proven veterans.
Now this, as reported by Triple Full:
… Artistic Gymnastics Federation is indeed investing heavily in its competitive program. Not content with bringing experienced coaches back from abroad, the Federation is trying to train its younger coaches by letting them take part in practical training sessions under the leadership of the best coaches at the Round Lake national training center. In addition, the Federation recently completely re-equipped 18 gymnastics schools with state-of-the-art apparatus. All this, it is said, with an eye not just to the future, but to the present. Sounds like the Russians mean business, doesn’t it? We can’t wait to see what will come of this all-out attempt to restore Russian gymnastics to its former glory.
Gymnastics Canada, will you completely re-equip our gym?
