Three weeks after the sacking of Marjorie Huells and Eve Kiefer, the gymnastics federation introduces a new duo: Ola Koch is helping the Belgian gymnasts out of the emergency situation as interim head coach, and her husband Dieter Koch becomes assistant. …
Ola Koch (68 years old) has the necessary experience. Until two years ago, she coached German women’s gymnastics. Elisabeth Seitz — a fixture on the uneven bars, Nina Derwael’s specialty — was one of the athletes who worked under her wing. …
Koch coached the German women’s national team between 2005 and 2021.
Gymnasts find new coach in Germany: Ola Koch
All agree that Janelle and her assistants turned UCLA around last year.

We were reminded of the great Wilhelm Weiler when Félix Dolci won the AA at the 2023 PanAm Games.
He was the 1st Canadian MAG winner at PanAms since Willie at the 4th Pan-American Games, São Paulo 1963.
We remember the name from the Weiler on H Bar and Bars.
You can watch a 27min documentary on that competition (MAG & WAG) FREE on the National Film Board of Canada website.
Hopefully she’s put the worst of her health problems behind.
