Glasgow 2015

Congratulations to Glasgow for winning the bid to host the 2015 Gymnastics worlds, beating out Orlando and Paris. Glasgow was the first city to place a bid for 2015 as it will build on the legacy of the 2014 Commonwealth Games.

Whilst Beth Tweddle has more than hinted she will retire after London 2012, hopefully it will persuade more of the current crop of seniors to stick around for another olympic cycle. It would be great to see Hannah Whelan make 3 olympics!

On a related note,  the Liverpool girls (Tweddle, Whelan, Pinches, Caig, Tunney & Jameson) have won the 2011 British team title. Scores from GymData.
