Olympics 2024 rhythmic gymnastics on TV: Channel, schedule, live stream
Your guide to rhythmic gymnastics at the Olympic Games 2024, including TV coverage and schedule.
Rhythmic gymnastics at the Olympic level is contested solely by women, with athletes competing in individual and group competitions.
Rhythmic gymnastics consists of floor routines, which combine dancing, jumping and rotating to music while using either clubs, hoops, ribbons or balls to accentuate the performance.
Separate panels of four judges mark the competitors on difficulty, artistry and execution, with the scores from each panel being averaged and combined to find the winner.

Judges will be looking out for what are known as "dynamic elements of rotation", which are essentially the hardest moves that can be made with a given piece of apparatus, such as throwing the ribbon into the air, performing a series of moves, then catching it again on one fluid motion.
In the group competition, apparatus can be passed between the competitors, allowing for eye-catching synchronised moves. The group routines can last for up to 150 seconds, and individual routines for up to 90, with penalties being imposed for going over time, poorly executing moves, or failure to use the apparatus properly.
