FIG L2 Academy Colombia
The Colombia Gymnastics Federation is having a very busy year.
After organising the 9th World Games in Cali, the federation has decided to also host three FIG Academies. An Academy for Trampoline Gymnastics finished in September and now another Academy – a Level 2 for Men’s and Women’s Artistic Gymnastics has just finished in Cali. Next week, the federation will be hosting an Academy for Rhythmic Gymnastics.
This most recent Academy was held from October 19 – 27 at the Gimnasio del Pueblo in Cali. … Thirty-six coaches representing nine of the ten FIG member federations of South America attended …
… equally split between Men’s (MAG) and Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (WAG) coaches with 18 each. The participation at this Academy was partially funded by the FIG through the FIG Development Fund for the Pan-American Gymnastics Union (PAGU). PAGU has used a significant portion of the money from the FIG Development Fund to subsidize the attendance of coaches at Academies and that policy has been enormously successful. …

Peng Peng out with ACL
What you go through in life just makes you that much stronger. Going for my 2nd ACL reconstructive surgery tomorrow. Sucks to be out for another season but I’m on the road to being 100%
😦
It’s the same knee. Because it had not healed correctly enough, the same ACL and patella tendon are under repair.

FIG YouTube channel
During the 44th Artistic Gymnastics World Championships in Antwerp (BEL), the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) has surpassed 20 million views on its YouTube channel, a figure that is rising rapidly on a daily basis. On 30 September alone, the channel attracted 233,844 viewers, their interest sparked largely by the extraordinary Floor routine performed by Japan’s Kenzo Shirai in Antwerp.
As spectacular as these figures are, they do need to be put into some context. While 20 million views is considerably higher than the numbers achieved by the federations of many other Olympic sports, it still represents less than half of the level generated by USA Gymnastics (55 million!). …
Both organizations are doing an excellent job of online video. As is GBR.
