British
Gymnastics President’s Address presented by Brian Stocks
in the end of the Saturday’s programme of the Technical
Conference at Lilleshall, was short and to the point. However,
it provoked a lengthy Question and Answer session and turned
into an excellent discussion about the present and the future of
the Association.
Although only half way through, the 2003 Technical Conference
has already fully justified its title.
