big changes for Singapore Gymnastics

A series of high-profile appointments, coupled with a new organisation structure, could spark new life in the Singapore gymnastics scene.

The sport’s national governing body, Singapore Gymnastics (SG), has landed a coup by bringing on board Karen Norden, who was a senior manager (participation and sport development) at Gymnastics Australia.

The 54-year-old Australian will be the new general manager of SG …

Another new hire is a familiar face in the local gymnastics fraternity. Lim Heem Wei, Singapore’s first Olympic gymnast who competed at the London Games in 2012, also joined SG this month as one of three new sport development managers. …

Lim will be in charge of women’s artistic gymnastics, while Perry Koh, 27, and Choy Dian Chun, 26, will oversee men’s artistic gymnastics and rhythmic gymnastics respectively.

Each of them are responsible for taking charge of both recreational and elite athletes within their own disciplines. …
