Re: The London 2012 Olympics: Sports discussion

Something that will probably slip under the radar but
MANY CONGRATULATIONS
to the Woman's Rhythmic Gynastics Team !!!!!
They had to finance themselves (at least £80,000) and fight a court case to get to appear at London 2012 on a Home Country place and, although they didn't get anywhere near the medal places, they did come 11th out of 12 (when everyone including, probably British Gymnastics, expected them to come last).

The team of Annie Bartlett, Georgina Cassar, Louisa Pouli, Francesca Fox, Jade Faulkner, Lynne Hutchison, Rachel Smith did themselves, and Team GB, proud (if you want proof watch their routine).

Best wishes to them and their coach and good luck for the future - there's much more to come.
