Valentina Rodionenko announced that Russian artistic gymnastics federation recommended Emin Garibov for the FIG Athletes Commission. The commission’s goal is to represent the interests of the athletes in FIG and it includes 6 people – one representative from WAG, MAG, rhythmic, aerobic, acrobatic gymnastics and trampoline. The elections for WAG and MAG representatives will be held at the Worlds in Montreal. Currently, the commission does not have any representatives from Russia.
I hope he gets a position! He’s a good commentator and has helped spread the popularity of the sport in Russia recently.
