2003–2004 FIG Rhythmic Gymnastics World Cup series

The 2003–2004 FIG Rhythmic Gymnastics World Cup series was a series of stages where events in rhythmic gymnastics were contested. The series consisted of a two-year long competition, culminating at a final event — the World Cup Final in 2004. A number of qualifier stages were held.[1][2] The top 3 gymnasts and groups in each apparatus at the qualifier events would receive medals and prize money. Gymnasts and groups that finished in the top 8 also received points which were added up to a ranking that qualified for the biennial World Cup Final.
