The European Championships in “TeamGym” to be hosted in Baku for the first time

On October 16-19, 2024, Baku will host the European Championships in “TeamGym”.

The decision was made at the meeting of the Executive Committee held at the Headquarters of the European Gymnastics in Lausanne. This will be the first European Championships to be hosted in “TeamGym” in our country.

This Gymnastics discipline has been developed in our country since 2018. “TeamGym” was officially included into AGF’s activity with the first participation of our National Team at the European Championships in “TeamGym” held in Portugal.

It should be mentioned that “TeamGym” is a team competition belonging to the European Gymnastics. Being a non-Olympic discipline, “TeamGym” comprises performances on three apparatus: Floor, Tumble & Trampet.

Routines on each apparatus require effective teamwork and excellent technique with difficult skills in acrobatic and Gymnastics elements.

“TeamGym” competitions are divided into three sections: Women, Men & Mixed Teams (teams consisting of both female & male gymnasts).
