Like so many sports, gymnastics was popular in ancient Greece where it was a way to

train young men to be fit for battle. The modern form of gymnastics began in the early 1800s inSweden. By the late 19th century, gymnastics clubs had sprung up in Germany and other

European countries.

The 1896 Olympics became the first large meeting for gymnasts of modern times when

five countries took part in five different events: pommel horse vault, parallel bars and horizontal

bar. German gymnasts won all the last three events. At the next Olympics in 1900, in Paris, an

individual all-round competition was added. Four years later, in St. Louis, the first team event

was held. The eight event, floor exercise, was not added until the 1932 Games in Los Angeles.

The gymnastics competition is held in three parts. First, all the gymnasts performed in six events

on all the apparatus. Individual scores are added together to decide the result of the team event.The gymnasts with the highest individual scores then will proceed to the all-round final. In the

all-round final, the gymnasts compete on all the apparatus again, and the total scores determine

the individual all-round medals.

Those little treasures,That he wants to keep.

Hes gobbled up trees,And hell swallow you next.
