About Gymnastics（Olympic sport since 1896）

The Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique (FIG) was formed on 23 July 1881 when representatives of the gymnastics associations of Belgium, France and the Netherlands met in Liège. As a governing body it is held in high esteem by both its member federations and gymnastics clubs throughout five continents. In 1897, seventeen national associations joined together to form the basis of the European Gymnastics Federation. However, when the USA was admitted in 1921, the Committee changed its name to the Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique or FIG, as it is known today.

FIG comprises three Olympic disciplines: artistic, rhythmic and trampoline.

Each discipline is controlled by a Technical Committee made up of a Technical President and six members.The Technical Committees are responsible for the coordination and control of their specific discipline in terms of the technical requirements for competition as they relate to each specific discipline. 
体操概述（1896年成为奥运会正式比赛项目）

国际体操联合会（FIG）成立于1881年7月23日，是由比利时、法国、荷兰体操联合会的代表在列日共同成立的。作为体操运动的权威机构，它深受五大洲各成员联合会和体操俱乐部的重视。起初在1897年时，17个国家体操联合会组成了欧洲体操联合会。1921年，随着美国的加入，联合会更名为国际体操联合会，简写为FIG。

国际体操联合会下设三类奥运比赛项目：竞技体操、艺术体操和蹦床。

每一类比赛都由一个技术委员会进行管理，技术委员会由1名主席和6名委员组成，负责协调、控制各项比赛的技术要求。
