The JGA has many responsibilities: these include selecting and training Japanese gymnastics teams for the Olympic Games and World Championships; promoting and developing gymnastics on a grassroots and national level; and serving as a resource center for member clubs, fans and gymnasts throughout Japan. The organization has programs in artistic gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, trampoline, acrobatics, aerobics gymnastics and gymnastics for all. The JGA was established in 1930.
