five minutes as part of a training session at the Gymnastics Hall of the
Shanghai University of Sports August 7, 2007. 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]
