Artistic gymnastics coaches course concludes successfully

The five-day artistic gymnastics coaches course, organised by the Qatar Gymnastics Federation in co-operation with the Asian Gymnastics Federation, successfully concluded with the participation of 26 coaches representing nine countries from Pakistan, the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, India, Iran, Bangladesh, Jordan and hosts Qatar.
The closing ceremony and honouring of the participating delegations were held in the gymnastics training hall in Al Laqta in the presence of Ali al-Hitmi, QGF president, and participants in the Asian course.
The participants, both coaches and experts from International Gymnastics Federation, praised the wonderful organisation of the course and their presence in Qatar, which they wished to return to again in other tournaments and courses. Certificates of participation were awarded to the trainees in the presence of Eric Bishrwan, an international gymnastics expert.
Speaking on the occasion, al-Hitmi said the course is of great importance to the Asian federation as it hosts coaches and players from Asia, looking forward to the latest technologies, new training and technical programs, as well as new regulations and laws.
Al-Hitmi also pointed out that the course achieved many gains for the coaches and participants in its activities, and we were keen to develop the technical level of our coaches, which will of course be reflected in achieving the goals of the QGF in expanding the base of the game in different age groups at the level of boys and girls in the coming period.
