Students of the gymnastics class of Yangpu District Youth Sports School are all
aged 5 to 9. China's future Olympic hopefuls train at one of the thousands of
provincial sports schools around the country. Even though these athletes might
be too young to make the 2008 Beijing Games, they harbour dreams of winning
Olympic gold in London 2012 or beyond. [Reuters]
