Two-time Olympic champion in rhythmic gymnastics Evgenia Kanaeva said she was ready to work in the technical committee of the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG).
“I will apply for a place on the technical committee – she knows how much I love rhythmic gymnastics. And she wants the technical committee to have people who have gone this way, who know how to throw, somersault, and not those who just write the rules. I understand the message of Irina Alexandrovna – our rules change every four years. Many elements are now underestimated “, – quotes Kanaeva MK-Sport…
