BBC2's extensive coverage of the World Gymnastics
Championships from the Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis, USA, begins here and runs through until Monday. Today the men's team events start.
The Soviet Union are favourites but they can expect a fierce challenge from the Chinese, Japanese and Americans. The championships also act as a qualification for the Olympic Games and a good performance could well earn the British team a place in Barcelona. Introduced by Barry Davies , with commentary by Mitch Fenner.
