Federation Cup gymnastics from today

NEW DELHI: Eight top teams will contest for supremacy in the gymnastics Federation Cup, starting at the Indira Gandhi Sports Complex here on Saturday. But, the non-availability of equipments put a question mark over the 'test' event for the Commonwealth Games.

The event had been postponed several times because of the unavailability of the equipments. Now, the organisers will use the equipments procured for the Ranchi National Games to conduct the competition.

"The Ranchi Games equipments are new, so there should not be any problem," said Gymnastics Federation of India (GFI) Secretary K.S. Rathore.

The Commonwealth Games Core Group probables will not be part of the main action as the federation does not want them to lose focus before the Games. But, according to Rathore, they would be performing separately during the six-day event. — Principal Correspondent
