Amateur definitions
The definition for the gymnastic competitions was:
An amateur is one:
- who has never, for pecuniary gain, taken part in a public competition or display;
- who has never taken part in a competition for money prizes;
- who, in all other respects, is an amateur according to the rules of his own country.
Gymnastic teachers and leaders, even though they receive payment as such, are regarded as amateurs.
