The Bulgarian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation has proposed to the International Federation that the assessment of artistry be added to the assessment of the routines. The proposal is in response to a letter from the president of the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) Morinari Watanabe with a request to the coaches of our national teams and specialists to offer an optimal system for evaluating artistry. A few months ago, Bulgaria expressed its ideas in this direction, during a symposium in Moscow, where it received the approval of most of those present. 
Important topics around the new rules are expected to be discussed on July 10, at an online meeting with national team coaches.
