Eddie Van Hoof has been dismissed today from his role as men’s Head National Coach at British Gymnastics.
Eddie was suspended from his role on 29th November 2017, pending investigation. During the process, it became clear that there are irreconcilable differences between Eddie and British Gymnastics regarding the leadership, conduct and culture of elite coaching for our sport.
… We thank Eddie for his contribution to British Gymnastics and wish him every success in the future.
