This past week has been monumental in the future of the sport of gymnastics. The FIG passed controversial changes to the Olympic qualifications that reduce the team size from five to four and add the opportunity of two more gymnasts from the top countries to qualify.

Numerous high-profile gymnasts and officials have voiced their concerns with the new system. Many other gymnastics fans have expressed outrage and over 3,500 people have signed the petition on Change.org to reverse the changes. 

We want to hear from you: do you like the new Olympic format? Do you think it actually provides more opportunity? Is FIG ruining the sport? Voice your opinions below!
