The Presidential Board met six times in 2011 and has already met four times in 2012; the
Executive Committee held four meetings in 2011, including a very important seminar, and three
meetings in 2012.
Naturally, my activities as President are vaster than just these; I have also participated in
numerous meetings with our member federations, partners, LOC, etc.
We have created, since 2010, a pool of apparatus suppliers with the participation of Spieth
Gymnastic, Janssen-Fritsen, Gymnova and Eurotramp, and sealed a partnership with Cirque du
Soleil and Christian Moreau.
In 2011, we had the pleasure of participating in the World Gymnaestrada in Lausanne, Olympic city
where the UEG has made its headquarters since 1988. Given the impact of our presence, we hope
to repeat the experience.
