coach in the UAE
There is a new Gymnastics Club in United Arab Emirates, in Dubai. They have Olympic equipment and as in this moment is the best gymnastics club in UAE connected directly with the Shaikh (the ruler of Dubai).
They are recruiting Artistic Gymnastics coaches from all over the world. They need someone with around 10 years of experience in coaching gymnastics that can speak fluent English. (It doesnt matter what level of gymnastics they teach before).
They will bring them here and make the visas and all procedures for them. Please let me know if there is anyone interested. Thank you and sorry for the disturbance but it is a good opportunity for anyone, they have good salaries and i just want to help anybody there who might need a stable job and they can accept to work in this country. Blessings, Peace and Love.

Oklahoma, L.S.U., Florida
NCAA Ranking this week-end
1 Oklahoma 197.625
2 L.S.U. 197.125
3 Florida 196.925
4 Utah 196.900
5 Michigan 196.600
6 Alabama 196.225
7 UCLA 196.000
8 Georgia 195.600
9 Oregon State 195.450
10 Nebraska 195.300
Florida managed a 196.925, the best opening mark in school history (?!), yet no one was leaving that meet happy.
Everything went swimmingly for two rotations. They were hitting routines, and the scores were gigantic (this was the softest-scored meet I saw over the weekend), but then things turned yucky on floor. Shisler tore her Achilles in the warmup, the first few routines were sloppy, and then Sloan came up short on her double pike dismount and had to be pulled from the meet.
They finished with a significant struggle on beam …
Balance Beam Situation – Week 1 Rankings and Notes
Last year’s AA Champion, Bridget Sloan, scored 10.0 on Vault. Before getting injured. 😦
UPDATE – Looks like Bridget will be out for about 6 weeks with an ankle sprain.
Oklahoma is No. 1, so far.

Note that Lauren calls this week 2. BBS discounts the few meets of last weekend, calling this week 1. Yet another NCAA controversy. 🙂
As expected, fans are already complaining about the judging.

Olympic Dreams Gymnastics, Singapore
She was Singapore’s first and only gymnast to compete at the Olympic Games and Lim Heem Wei is hoping to help others chart a similar path.
Barely a month into her retirement, the 25-year-old is already busy making plans to set up her own private school, Olympic Dreams Gymnastics, to guide the next generation of budding stars.
It will start in early February …

Dr. Bill Sands:
Greetings,
I would like to enlist your help in creating and supporting a national injury database for gymnastics. The database is an attempt to gather nationwide injury data by a “crowdsourcing” approach.
“Crowdsourcing is the process of obtaining needed services, ideas, or content by soliciting contributions from a large group of people, and especially from an online community, rather than from traditional employees or suppliers.”
Many of us have called for a national injury database for gymnastics injuries. Sadly, these calls have failed because of lack of resources, imagination, funding, and will. I hope this attempt will be successful. I know that the success or failure of the database will depend on your willingness to participate and your vigilance in continually submitting injury information.
You should know that personal identifying information will not be acquired. Your participation is completely anonymous. Participants simply fill in a form. I will process the data and add it to a database. The database will be maintained offline to ensure that the dataset cannot be hacked. The results of analyses of the continually accumulating data will be published periodically on the website.
I hope you will help.
Here’s the website: GymnasticsInjuryData.com
Thanks,
