Nestled in a gym on the south side of Columbia, Shari Mann teaches a group of young gymnasts how to have fun while improving their technique. What most of the participants don't realize is the level of expertise their teacher has. A lot of people don't recognize how good she was and the level that she got to," Mann's husband and gym co-owner Jonathan Liddle said while glancing up at a collage of newspaper articles posted above the water fountain at Authority Gymnastics and Cheer. "I would say 95 percent of the kids that come in are here because their parents are looking for an activity that's a healthy lifestyle activity. ... Even though she's competed all over the world, it wouldn't make a difference to a kid who is 4.
LOS ANGELES - A former U.S. Olympic team coach who guided American gymnastics to some of its most iconic and triumphant moments could face a lifetime ban from the sport after three women have come forward to accuse him of having sex with young gymnasts in the 1980s. Don Peters coached the groundbreaking U.S. women's team to a record eight medals at the 1984 Olympic Games and built SCATS, a Huntington Beach gymnastics club, into an international powerhouse with a string of Olympians and national champions.
BEIJING -- The parents of the Chinese gymnasts are indignant, the International Olympic Committee sounds satisfied and the Beijing Games are almost over. Yet questions persisted Friday about the ages of China's gold-medal women's gymnastics team. Are they 14? Are they 16?

NEW WAVERLY, Texas -- One woman likes Led Zeppelin, has already been through college and spent her time before the Olympics worrying as much about bills as tumbling and twirling. Another is coached by her husband, has lived in two countries and is well into the second phase of her career after an earlier, five-year retirement. They are 25-year-old Mohini Bhardwaj and 26-year-old Annia Hatch, hardly typical Olympic gymnasts. They were chosen for the American team Sunday, capping comebacks after refusing to buy into the widely held notion that female gymnasts are washed up by age 20.
CENTERVILLE -- Heading into the season, Centerville gymnastics coach Jennifer Dittman knew her squad had a chance to be really good. With two returning state qualifiers to go with a core of gymnasts who were on the team that qualified for state in 2009, the stage seemed set for a great 2011.
