Russian Junior Artistic Gymnastics Championships
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Russian Junior Artistic Gymnastics Championships (Russian: Первенство России по спортивной гимнастике) are organized annually by the Russian Artistic Gymnastics Federation.
Competitors are divided into the following categories by gender and age: junior males (Russian: юниоры, 14–17 years old), junior females (юниорки, 13–15), boys (юноши, 11–13) and girls (девушки, 9–12).[1] Individual events are further divided by skill levels / difficulties. (Each skill level corresponds to a certain sports degree: Master of Sports [MS] and Candidate for Master of Sports [CMS] for juniors, First Class and Second Class for boys/girls.)
Competitions in different gender and/or age groups may be held at different sites and at different time. (For example, competitions in the older age groups can be held simultaneously with the senior nationals. That was the case in 2010, 2012, 2014 and 2016. In 2018, the competitions in the older age groups were held simultaneously with the Cup of Russia. The lower age groups can be conducted as separate championships.)
