Chinese Gymnastics Association
The Chinese Gymnastics Association (CGA, Chinese: 中国体操协会; pinyin: Zhōngguó tǐcāo xiéhuì), is a national mass sports organization and group member of the All-China Sports Federation. CGA is the sole legal organization representing China to participate in international and Asian gymnastics organizations.
History
Founded in 1956, the Chinese Gymnastics Association (CGA) first affiliated with the Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique (FIG) in August of the same year; in 1964 the CGA left the FIG because of discontent with its conspiracy to establish the so-called "two Chinas," and in October 1978 the FIG restored the CGA's legal seat.[1] CGA is responsible for conducting scientific research and organizing international and domestic technical research in gymnastics.[2][3]
