FRANK-WALTER STEINMEIER President of the Federal Republic of Germany Dear gymnasts, You and indeed all of us have been waiting for a long time for another major gymnastics festival to finally take place: DAS Turnfest, as the event in Leipzig simply and yet con- fidently calls itself. I know that for the many participating gymnasts it is not merely a major sporting event, but THE Gymnastics Festival. An unmistakeable gathering that always sparks great joy and enthusiasm. I also know that many people look forward to it for a long time in advance – after all, the festival only takes pla- ce every four years. And it was therefore all the more tragic for the entire gymnastics community, both in Germany and farther afield, that the planned festival in Leipzig in 2021 had to be cancelled because of the pandemic. I think it is marvellous that Leipzig is now willing to host the festival again in 2025. That is no small thing. If, as is envisaged, 750,000 guests and 80,000 active participants, including at least 5000 international guests, actually come, then I can imagine the scope of the challenges that the city, the Land and also the Verein Deutsches Turnfest and the German Gymnastics Federation will have to overcome. A large number of volunteers is required, accommodation on a large scale is needed, food and drink will have to be provided – indeed everything necessary for so many people to have a pleasant, carefree and unforgettable time. I am very happy to assume the patronage of Das Turnfest 2025, as I did in Berlin in 2017. Firstly, becau- se I know how important the festival is for the large, often so dedicated community of gymnasts, and secondly, because I also know that our entire country will be focusing on Leipzig during those hopefully sunny days in May. After all, it is the largest recreational and competitive sports event in the world. As I write, many people are looking forward to it in anticipation – here on the website there is even a countdown to the start of the event on 28 May! And when the time has finally come, everyone gets an enormous amount out of these days: the experience of a great community, the shared enjoyment of gymnastics, of sport, of physical exercise. I hope that this keeps on generating new motivation for local gymnastics associations and for every individual. Although some regard it as a fringe phenomenon, gymnastics is still a sport that is very much alive, particularly because it is experienced within associa- tions. That can clearly be seen time and again at the Turnfest. I hope that you all enjoy the sense of anticipation in the run-up to your event and wish you unforgettable experiences over the days of the festival itself. Frank-Walter Steinmeier 4 · Greetings · Turnfest Leipzig 2025

Dear gymnasts, dear visitors, From 28 May to 1 June 2025, the German Gymnastics Federation (DTB) is hosting the International German Gymnastics Festival. As the federal minister responsible for sport, I am pleased that, after a long break due to the pandemic, the world’s leading gymnastics event can take place once again. The gymnastics festival will be held in Leipzig for the thirteenth time – a city with considerable experience and great enthusiasm for sports, which will welcome some 80,000 active participants. The festival is a special event. As the world’s largest com- petitive and recreational sporting event, it combines high- level competitions with unique opportunities for people from all walks of life to take part, regardless of their back- ground. In this way, the International German Gymnastics Festival invites competitors and spectators alike to share in the experience of fair play, tolerance and diversity. And some who attend the festival will certainly leave it with more awareness of the importance of a healthier and more active lifestyle. Undoubtedly, the 750,000 expected attendees – both pre- sent and future gymnastics fans – will live out the gym- nastics festival’s mission: experiencing the fascination of gymnastics, boosting it and sharing it with others. The festival’s wide-ranging offerings related to gymnastics – opportunities to join in, demonstrations and sporting com- petitions – help it to fulfil this mission. The safety and se- curity of the athletes and attendees will also be ensured. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the gym- nasts, organisers and volunteers for their tremendous de- dication both before and during the gymnastics festival. To the entire gymnastics community and your guests, I wish you an unforgettable experience at the 2025 Interna- tional German Gymnastics Festival in Leipzig.

The Free State of Saxony is a state on the move. In all areas, we in Saxony are developing strength and dynamism, are striving for precision and perfection. Our industry is under- going the transformation of the century, aiming at climate neutrality. Our cultural landscape is constantly increasing in richness and diversity. Above all, Saxony is a sporting state. The sports clubs with their more than 700,000 mem- bers - and rising - are the largest civic movement in the Free State. In more than a hundred disciplines, they does excellent work with young talent. Top-class sport in Saxo- ny draws on them and produces national and international stars and top teams. In a state on the move, the state government of course promotes mass sport as well as elite sport. This inclu- ded advertising partnerships with our state campaign „So geht Sächsisch“ (“Simply Saxony”), investment funding for sports facilities, and financial support for major sporting events such as the International German Gymnastics Fes- tival 2025 in Leipzig. I am convinced that the great Saxon sports city of Leipzig will once again be an outstanding host for gymnasts from Germany and all over the world. It will also turn this event into a festival in which the citizens and their guests will be united in celebrating sports. I would like to thank the many staff and volunteers who make this festival of movement possible. A warm welco- me to all visitors and a good time to you all in the Free State of Saxony, the land on the move.

Dear gymnastics enthusiasts, It is a pleasure that I extend a warm invitation to the Inter- national German Gymnastics Festival in Leipzig, taking place from May 28th to June 1st, 2025. This event, hosted by the German Gymnastics Federation, holds significant importance within our community. Anticipation for this unique gathering has only intensified following the unfor- tunate cancellation of the 2021 Gymnastics Festival. The Gymnastics Festival serves as a unifying force, bringing together individuals of all genders, ages, back- grounds, and social standings. United by the shared pas- sion for gymnastics, we aim to celebrate, strengthen, and promote this enthusiasm collectively during the festival. The diverse programme showcases the richness of both our gymnastics and sports clubs, as well as the vibrant culture of Leipzig itself. Over the course of 5 days, compe- titions in 23 sports, including ten German Championships and one World Championship, will take place across many different venues. Additionally, activities promoting fitness, health, and both traditional and contemporary sports will be featured. The Turnfest-Akademie will offer more than 400 educational courses, alongside captivating shows, ga- las, a dynamic children‘s and youth programme, interactive cultural activities, and the Turnfest Fair. Leipzig provides an ideal setting for a gymnastics festival that not only honours the traditions of our movement but also addresses contemporary issues. As the second-lar- gest sports association in Germany, we are committed to fulfilling our social responsibility by promoting sustainabi- lity and environmentally friendly practices throughout the event. The German Gymnastics Federation and the organi- zing committee are dedicated to ensuring an unforgetta- ble experience for all participants. We eagerly anticipate your presence in Leipzig, as together, we demonstrate that “Gymnastics simply rocks!“ Dr. Alfons Hölzl DR. ALFONS HÖLZL President German Gymnastics Federation Turnfest Leipzig 2025 · Greetings · 7

Dear athletes and guests from near and far, In 2023, over 24 million people were members of over 86,000 sports clubs across Germany - that’s a huge number that has returned us to to pre-Covid times. As you probably remember, the International German Gymnastics Festival 2021 also fell victim to the pandemic. That is why we and our partners have now invested all the more strength, am- bition, and enthusiasm in presenting our 1000-year-old city of Leipzig at the end of May 2025 as what it has been for generations: a city of music, science and trade fairs - with sporting splendour and a remarkable history of athletics. In 1863, we hosted the 3rd General German Gymnastics Festival for the first time. To date, Leipzig has now hos- ted this event twelve times, most recently in 2002. Since that time, our city has witnessed rapid economic develop- ment and become a cosmopolitan, modern and dynamic central German metropolis with an efficiently developed infrastructure for popular and high-performance sports. Leipzig’s citizens also have immense enthusiasm, passion and commitment to sports through their full-time or volun- tary work, and they put their heart, soul, creativity and skill into everyday athletic life. Around 400 clubs represent the spirit of popular sports throughout the city, and at least one in six residents is a member of a sports club. You will feel this at the International German Gymnastics Festival 2025: Leipzig is looking forward to this high point. And we want to show you without reservation that “Sport findet Stadt!” - We are a city of sports. Leipzig welcomes you with open arms and is once again looking forward to meeting thousands of active partici- pants and guests. Let’s enjoy the fair competition, celebra- te together, and get to know our sports-loving citizens! Burkhard Jung BURKHARD JUNG Mayor of the City of Leipzig 8 · Greetings · Turnfest Leipzig 2025

MOBILITY In terms of the carbon footprint, the arrival and de- parture and transportation and logistics cause by far the largest proportion of greenhouse gas emissions at major sporting events, accounting for between 60 and 85 percent. As a contribution to global climate protection, the Turnfest has set itself the goal of avoi- © Severin Biegler ding as many emissions as possible and reducing them whenever possible. The following measures are at the forefront of this: Communication campaign for emission-reducing travel to and from the event Event of short distances - the event concept is de- signed so that all venues can be reached by public transport, on foot or by bike Promotion of sustainable mobility behavior, such as by providing bicycle parking spaces at the event hotspots Public transport use is included in all Turnfest tickets Avoidance of empty journeys and non-utilisation of rented vehicles through cross-departmental plan- ning Data collection and recording of CO2 emissions during the arrival and departure of participants - as a basis for target figures for future International German Gymnastics Festivals © Fahrradgarderobe © Panthermedia.net-dfuentesphotostock Turnfest Leipzig 2025 · Sustainability concept · 53 i

In order to conserve global resources, we have set ourselves the goal of critically scrutinizing and reducing this in all areas. Our goals include a higher proportion of recyclable materials and the first steps towards a circular economy. Waste avoidance, e.g. through the use of reusable containers and biodegradable materials (100% in catering) Reducing the amount of paper used in the preparation, advertising and implementation of the event (e.g. digital Programme Guide, 97% digital certificates) Revision and reduction of the merchandise range (30% overall reduc- tion compared to the Turnfest 2017) Use of materials from responsible production, such as recycled or renewable raw materials, certified organic cultivation or sustainable supply chains (30% in catering, 50% in merchandise) Freely accessible drinking water stations for participants and visitors 90 percent of the Gymnastics Festival’s electricity needs are covered by green electricity Circularity: reuse instead of new purchase or disposal!

THE TURNFEST 2025 During the week of the event, the topic of sustaina- bility will be embedded in the event concept through numerous measures in our 4 main action areas across the city. But what does sustainability actually mean in the context of a major sporting event? What can a mass event actually do to become more sustainable? And how can event organizers best approach this? To provide a concise overview to as many participants and visitors as possible, to make our action areas more tangible, and to raise awareness of more sustai- nable behavior among all Turnfest guests, there will be Sustainability Park a dedicated „Sustainability Park“ for the first time in the history of Turnfest! Right in the heart of the city, on Leipzig’s market square, tens of thousands of people will be able to find out about the diversity of sustaina- bility and try out exciting hands-on activities. In this way, we can all make a small contribution to an envi- ronmentally and resource-friendly Turnfest 2025, as well as responsible interactions with one another!

COMPETITIONS INFORMATION As the largest and most popular competitive sports event in the world, the International German Gymnastics Festival Leipzig 2025 of- fers an extensive and impressive range of competitions. In the various sports and disciplines, competitions ranging from popular sports to German championships will be held. Another unique feature of the Turnfest Leipzig 2025 is the continuous participation across dif- ferent age groups, from youths aged 12 and above to the elderly. Thanks to the variety of disciplines, the different age groups and the different performance levels, every participant will find the right competition for them. GENERAL COMPETITION INFORMATION The minimum age to participate in competitions at the Turnfest Leipzig 2025 is usually 12 years (born in 2013), in some sports it is possible to compete from the age of 11 (born in 2014). The competitions will be held in accordance with the DTB competition rules. Ac- cording to these rules, at least 3 entries must be submitted for competitions to be held, otherwise these competitions will be combined with the next higher age group or difficulty level and evaluated together. For participation in competitions, German clubs require a valid eligibility to start according to the DTB competition rules, including a DTB-ID and an annual membership with the right to compete in the corresponding sport. Excluded from this requirement are Wahlwettkämpfe competitions (Mixed and specialist competitions) as well as some other competitions. Further details regarding eligibility rights can be found in the official announcements of the respective sports. JUDGES AND REFEREES Without the commitment of these volunteers, competitions at the International German Gymnastics Festival cannot be conducted. Therefore, we appeal to all clubs to nominate licensed referees or judges for all sports. In order to ensure that all apparatuses and di- sciplines can be staffed with referees or judges for the Wahlwettkämpfe competitions, the Organising Committee of the International German Gymnastics Festival Leipzig 2025 urgently requires a sufficient number of referees or judges nominations from the clubs. 1. All judges must register personally via the online registration tool for Judges and Referees (https://www.turnfest.de/en/registra- tion/judges). This registration is independent of whether they are taking part in any other Turnfest activities in addition to their judging duties. 2. Only those judges who wish to actively participate in the Turnfest and use other festival offers, in addition to their judging assi- gnments, require the paid Participant Card for this purpose. These judges must also be registered as participants via Turnfest-Por- tal by the club admin. The further deployment of the judges will be planned after the registration deadline by the respective representatives of the sports ac- cording to the registrations. All judges will receive compensation for their work after the event. Further instructions from the sports can be found in the official announcements. In the Gymnastics Festival Games, the teams that are not playing usually provide the arbitration. International participants can take part in all competitions with competition numbers listed in this English programm guide. Competitions that do not contain competition numbers are listed for information purposes only. Spectators are welcome for all events. Turnfest Leipzig 2025 · Competitions from A-Z · 71

REGISTRATION FOR COMPETITIONS Registration for the competitions is carried out by the club admin via the registration tool. The competitions are divided into the follo- wing categories: • Wahlwettkämpfe • • • Single Competitions Group Compeitions Gymnastics Festival Games Further information on the entry procedure can be found on p. 146. ENTRY NOTIFICATION For the first time, the competition days for the individual age groups are not fixed for the DTB Wahlwettkampf (Mixed), including the specialised competitions in apparatus gymnastics, athletics, swimming, gymnastics and “jump“ as well as for the cup competitions in artistic gymnastics. Instead, the competition days and times can be freely choosen regardless of age group, depending on availability. This new format makes it possible for club groups to compete together in the DTB Wahlwettkampf and thereby allows participants a more individualized arrangement of their Turnfest days. The available entries offered are stored in the official registration platform and can be selected by the club admins during registration. As the entries are limited, early registration is recommended to ensure the desired date. In case of subsequent cancellations before the registration deadline, entries that were previously shown as fully booked may become available again. After the registration deadline, it is no longer possible to change the day and/or time of the competition. Due to the age-independent format, an evaluation of the corre- sponding competitions according to gender and age groups can only take place after each final round. The publication of the results is scheduled for Sunday, June 1st 2025. COMPETITION CARDS All international participants in the Wahlwettkämpfe Mix, the specialist competitions and the Cup Competitions will receive the competi- tion card when collecting other Turnfest documents upon arrival at the Participants Management Desk at the Leipzig Exhibition Centre. COMPETITION TIMES All times given are provisional. The warm-up times and further information will be published in the respective detailed announcements or in the schedules after the registration deadline. AWARDS All participants who have completed their competition in accordance with the rules will receive an award, regardless of the score and rank achieved. © www.turnfestfotos.de 72 · Competitions · Turnfest Leipzig 2025

*ARTISITC GYMNASTICS - P LEVELS (COMPULSORY ROUTINES) The exact texts of the gymnastics routine including information on scoring, list of typical mistakes and the corresponding point deduc- tions are summarized in the DTB task books for apparatus “Gerätturnen weiblich 2015“ and “Gerätturnen männlich 2015“ (see p. 80). CALCULATION Due to the different maximum values in the evaluation, the following conversion method applies to Artistic Gymnastics: For the P levels, 5.00 points will always be deducted from the final judges’ score. For athletics and swimming, the performances of the disciplines offered are converted using the DTB’s Mehrkämpfe table, which ap- plies uniformly to all ages and performance classes (see brochure “Mehrkämpfe 2008“). In trampoline gymnastics, 5.00 points are always added to the final score of the judges. In Rope Skipping (Easy Jump), the jumps with both feet over the rope within 30 seconds are counted. 130 jumps result in 14.00 points and 0 jumps result in 0.00 points. In Speed Jump, the jumps in running step (speed jump, jogging step) are counted on the spot within 30 seconds. This involves jumping over the rope alternately with the right and left foot. The number of times the right foot touches the ground is counted. 100 jumps result in 14.00 points and 0 jumps result in 0.00 points.

WHEEL GYMNASTICS TEAM WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE 160-YEAR HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL GERMAN GYMNAS- TICS FESTIVAL, THE 44TH EDITION IN 2025 WILL SEE GYMNASTS COMPETING FOR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES. The original plan was for the title for the best wheel gymnastics team in the world to be con- tested in the Leipzig exhibition halls as early as 2021. Fortunately, the International Wheel Gym- nastics Federation (IRV) supported the postponement to 2025, so that the German Gymnastics Federation (DTB) and the International German Gymnastics Festival can now proudly host this extraordinary competitive sport spectacle - the World Team Championships in wheel gymnas- tics. A truly magnificent event, which is fittingly taking place on the 100th anniversary of wheel gymnastics! Exactly 100 years ago in the picturesque Bavarian region of Rhön, Otto-Feick developed the impressive piece of sports equipment that still towers up to 245 centimetres high today. The German athletes set global standards in the various disciplines between the steel hoops. On May 31st and June 1st, 2025, the Leipzig Exhibition Centre will become the stage for the World Team Championships in the adult and youth categories, where the aim is to defend the gold medals. The previous World Team Championships 2023 in Chicago was characterized by outstanding performances from all qualifying nations. In the end, the German athletes held their nerve and came out on top once again and on several occasions. Celebrate with us and give this top event and the 100th anniversary the perfect setting with enthusiastic spectator support!

Vural, Serkan PRESENTER EASY ON FOOT Wednesday, May 28th | 14:30 to 15:45 KONGRESSHALLE at the Zoo Leipzig 55101 WS-NO. Heidenbluth, Norman PRESENTER FlooMo is a combined body, mind and dance conditioning class. FlooMo is performed using basic dance movements. The correct integration of the shoulders, spine and hips is very important. These three systems are constantly wor- king together to make the overall movement of the human body fluid and coordinated. FlooMo is easy to implement for everyone. Every day we hide our feet in socks and shoes. Then we use our feet at peak performance when they are “cold“ - jumping, running, carrying weights. Our feet quickly resent this and become painful or deformed. The aim here is to regenerate and stabilize the foot, to release blockages and counteract deformities, so that we can continue to walk well. 120 · Academy programme · Turnfest Leipzig 2025

FORMS OF BEHAVIOUR OUR TOGETHERNESS AT THE TURNFEST LEIPZIG 2025 1. I respect the dignity of all people at the Turnfest 2025 and will treat everyone equally and fairly, regardless of their social, ethnic and cultural background, ideology, religion, political beliefs, sexual orientation and identity, age or gender, and will firmly oppose discrimination of any kind and anti-democratic ideas. 2. I will organise all touching of children and young people appropriately with regard to the respective situ- ation, body area, age, gender and role constellation. Physical contact when providing assistance may be necessary to protect athletes, give them important movement aids or provide feedback information. Such touching must be announced (in any case of the first time), its purpose must be explained and the athlete must be asked whether they consent to the touching. 3. I will never use physical touch to punish, reprimand or get my way. 4. I will not treat anyone in a hostile, derogatory or derisive manner and will avoid punitive or threatening shouting. I will support participants at the gymnastics festival if they become stressed, are unable to fulfil require- ments or are affected by strong negative feelings (fear, crying). I will take participants‘ concerns and worries seriously and actively endeavour to find solutions. 5. 6. 7. I accept the decisions and boundaries of others and do not force anyone to do anything. 8. I will not tolerate or participate in sexist or violent language, bullying, aggressive or sexually provocative games. 9. Where possible, I will not shower together with the children and young people entrusted to my care. The changing rooms may only be entered when the carers/trainers have received a clear signal that they may enter after knocking/asking if they may enter. 10. I can turn to trusted persons at any time if I have concerns or problems. 11. I value the development of skills, abilities and progress more than competitive placings and therefore value effort as much as results. 12. I will avoid the consumption of alcohol, nicotine and drugs as long as I am responsible for children and young people, as this is not compatible with positive health behaviour in sport. 13. I would like to be a role model for the participants of the gymnastics festival, to always convey the obser- vance of sporting and interpersonal rules and to act in accordance with the laws of fair play. I will act as a positive and active role model in the fight against doping and drug abuse as well as against any kind of performance manipulation. 160 · Forms of behaviour · Turnfest Leipzig 2025 i
