KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Gymnastics Federation (MGF) have managed to pull a rabbit out of their hat ahead of the upcoming 13th Junior Rhythmic Gymnastics Asian Championships next month.

Despite the group exercise event not being part of the rhythmic programme, the Federation have managed to pool their resources in just six months to form a team for the first time ever for the Championships which will be held at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil from Feb 18-25.
