Former great gymnast Nadia Comăneci was present at the start of construction for the gymnastics hall that will bear her name, a project carried out by the Țiriac Foundation in Otopeni.
In the summer of 1976, a then-14-year-old Nadia Comăneci received the first perfect 10 in the history of Olympic gymnastics, immortalizing her name in Romania and elsewhere.
“As a sign of recognition for her unique legacy, the Țiriac Foundation is building the 'Nadia Comăneci' Gymnastics Hall, a place dedicated to children who want to discover the beauty and discipline of this sport.
The new hall will mark that legacy, linking the glorious past of Romanian gymnastics to its promising future.
