II Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships were held in Prague, Czechoslovakia on 3 and 4 December 1965.

Gymnasts competed four routines: a compulsory exercise without apparatus (freehand), and three optional routines, one freehand as well as one each with rope and with ball. Mila Hanzlikova, in a report on the competition, noted that in the compulsory freehand exercise, gymnasts were to "show correct walking, running in arcs and distance leaps" and that scores were lower in this exercise compared to the others.[1]

The previous year's champion, Ludmila Savinkova, as well as Hana Mičechová, who won the competition, received the highest rope scores (9.5), while Maria Gigova received the highest with ball (9.466); Savinkova was unable to defend her title after kicking the ball into the audience.[1]

## Participants

[edit]

There were 35 competitors from 12 countries: Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, German Democratic Republic, Federal Republic of Germany, Hungary, Poland, Yugoslavia, Finland, Cuba, Belgium and Austria.[1]

## Results
