Although British gymnasts competed at numerous Olympic Games as early as 1908, they did not compete at a World Championships until 1966.[1] Neil Thomas won Great Britain's first world medal, a silver on floor exercise, at the 1993 World Championships.[2] At the 2015 World Championships both men and women won their first team medals, a silver and bronze respectively.[3]
