The men's team was one of two gymnastics events on the Gymnastics at the 1908 Summer Olympics programme.

Competition format[edit]

Each team was composed of between 16 and 40 gymnasts, with a time limit of 30 minutes for the performance. Free gymnastics and hand apparati were allowed. There were three judges for each performance, each giving a score of up to 160 divided as follows: 40 points for "appearance and march of the competitors," 60 points for "precision of movement, style, etc.," and 60 points for "physiological and rational combination of the exercises executed."[1] The judges' scores were summed. A total of 480 points was possible.[2]
