2016-EM Maribor Oeft Team

TeamGym is a form of competition created by the European Union of Gymnastics. The first official competition was held in Finland in 1996. Originally named EuroTeam, TeamGym received its current name in 2002. From 1996 to 2008, the European Championships was an event for clubs; since 2010 the competition is contested with national teams representing different countries. TeamGym events consist of three sections: women, men and mixed teams. Gymnasts perform skills in three different disciplines: floor, tumbling and trampette.[1] In common for the performance is effective teamwork, good technique in the elements and spectacular acrobatic skills.[2]

A variation of the sport in the United States is governed by USA Gymnastics under the Gymnastics for All (GfA) discipline.[3]
