All the Federations were invited to submit the applications of their groups wishing to participate in the FIG 2011 Gala by latest 30 June 2009.
We received not less than 45 files and videos from four corners of the world.
We thank all the groups and Federations for their interest in this prestigious Gala.

The groups who has been selected for the FIG Gala are the following:
