Overview

• Aimee Boorman, a former coach of seven-time Olympic champion Simone Biles, has been appointed as the new head coach for Stuttgart's gymnastics team.
• The appointment follows serious allegations of physical and mental abuse at the Stuttgart national training center, revealed in December 2024.
• Boorman will begin her role in March 2025, leading the training group that includes gymnasts Helen Kevric and Marlene Gotthardt for a five-month period.
• Two previous coaches were removed from their positions after the allegations surfaced, and the Stuttgart prosecutor's office has launched an investigation into multiple cases of coercion.
• Boorman, who coached Biles from 2005 to 2016, has also worked as an expert and consultant for gymnastics organizations in recent years.
