Gymnastics at the 1984 Summer Olympics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gymnastics at the 1984 Summer Olympics was represented by two different gymnastics disciplines: artistic gymnastics and rhythmic gymnastics, held at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles from July 29 to August 11. In artistic gymnastics 14 events were contested (6 for women and 8 for men), while in rhythmic gymnastics - one women's event.

In artistic gymnastics the number of gymnasts, who qualified for event finals on each apparatus was increased from six to eight both in men's and women's events. The scoring and judging system in artistic gymnastics events were similar to gymnastics events at the previous Olympics.

Rhythmic gymnastics event was contested for the first time in Olympic history.
