As concerns of Vietnam and other countries in the region, in a meeting of the Southeast Asian Sports Federation held in Nay Pyi Taw (Myanmar) yesterday, January 29, the host country of the 27th SEA Games officially decided to exclude gymnastics out from the competition program.Vietnam Net
We have yet to hear anything official from Singapore Gymnastics, however, given this news, I see our gymnasts out of an opportunity to compete. This is one of the (many) reasons Singaporean and SE Asian gymnasts are left behind.
If you ask a veteran gymnast here how many competitions they've competed in during their lifetime, their answer might be 30 and that's including major international competitions. If you ask a level 8, 10 year old gymnast in America how many she's competed in she will probably give you a number double that.
Give these gymnasts MORE opportunities please! Not take them away.
