North Greenwich Arena will welcome the world’s best artistic gymnasts for a jam-packed schedule of competition this summer.
Although they make it look effortless, gymnasts need incredible strength, control and balance, combined with speed in the Vault. The winning gymnasts will be daring and ambitious – attempting moves that are guaranteed a high score for difficulty if they can be executed to perfection.
Judged against such exacting criteria, the smallest extra step, wobble, misalignment or mistake in a routine can make all the difference. Gymnasts must not lose concentration for a second.
The competition will see 196 competitors - 98 men and 98 women - compete across 14 medal events. Each country is limited to five men and five women. All entries will be confirmed following the sport entries deadline on 9 July 2012.
