Former British gymnasts allege physical, psychological abuse By KEN MAGUIREFebruary 26, 2021 GMT Three Olympians and several other former gymnasts are taking legal action against British Gymnastics, saying Friday they have been the victims of decades of physical and psychological abuse by coaches. The litany of allegations by 17 female claimants includes bullying, controlling behavior and inappropriate use of physical force against athletes as young as 6 years old in a “winning at all costs” mentality. Their notice told British Gymnastics that they are seeking financial compensation and an acknowledgement of negligence. The law firm representing the group of women now ranging from 15 to 43 years old expects the number of gymnasts to increase and possibly include men.
