Indian Gymnastics NEW coach

Times of India June 3, 2013:

The quest for a foreign coach for Indian gymnastics has finally made some headway with two candidates submitting their applications for the top post to the Sports Authority of India (SAI).

“The process has already started. We have received two applications for the coaching job. We are evaluating their resumes. At this point, I can’t tell you the names but country’s gymnasts will soon have a foreign coach,” SAI DG Jiji Thomson said. …

Two factions in India have been battling for recognition by FIG.

… The infighting led to gymnasts participating in two separate senior nationals at Allahabad and Rai and missing four World Cups last year. …

Ashish Kumar and the rest of the best in India are still training for Commonwealth Games 2014 despite the many months of trouble in India.
