Rhythmic gymnastics is an individual and team sport which mixes elements of dance, style and athleticism. Competitors must control and perform with one or more objects, such as a ribbon or ball. This object is referred to as an "apparatus". Competitors are judged on their overall execution, balance, performance, and handling.
