This is a forum for those who are interested in the sport of gymnastics to both ask and answer questions about the sport. The rules are always changing, and the scoring isn't obvious to the spectators, and not always obvious to the coahes, athletes, parents, or sports casters.

Feel free to upload any pictures you have copyright to. Lurkers are welcome, but please vote in the polls. Spamming in the message board or links section means banishment. First time posters subject to moderation for this purpose, and to make sure they are suitable for all ages. You are welcome to advertise other groups, and not for profit websites.

I'm looking for moderators for this group, particularly people with intimate knowledge and preferably experience in gymnastics on alllevels from athlete's, coach's, spectator's, and judge's point of view. Post a message if you are interested.
