Coach: Slovenian gymnasts hope to show good results in Baku

Slovenian gymnasts hope to show good results at the FIG Artistic Gymnastics Individual Apparatus World Cup in Baku, Sebastian Piletic, head coach of the country’s men's national artistic gymnastics team, told Trend.

“We have brought four young gymnasts. One of them – Saso Bertoncelj – won a gold medal in a pommel horse event at the European Games. Besides, there are a number of other good gymnasts and I hope they will, at least, reach the finals,” he said.

This is not the first time Slovenian gymnasts visit Baku, Piletic said, adding they are very pleased with the conditions created in the gymnastics hall.

“We came to Baku for the World Cup last year and for the European Games. The hall in Baku is excellent – it has everything necessary for athletes.”
