Hi
Just been looking at the Voluntary results and was looking at the D scores, so went and searched for some info on how the judges calculate the scores.
From my limited understanding on judging, the E Panel judge the Execution score. All Gymnast start with an E score of 10, so a perfect routine would score 10 and deductions are made from 10, such as -0.3 for small error, -0.5 for a medium error and -1.0 for a large error such as a fall. So that’s basically the E Panel ( Execution ) and it stems from the old perfect 10 routines from Korbut and Comaneci's days.
And the A panel judge and consider the difficulty of the routine and award extra points for the difficulty of the routine. So the D score ( Difficult Value DV ) is then added to the E score. So the total score is then E panel + A panel. So A panel is the people who consider the difficult value (DV).
So when a coach registers a gymnast for a competition, does the D panel know before hand what the difficulty of the routine is that the gymnast is about to perform ?
Or does the A panel just decide what the Difficulty Value is whilst the gymnast is performing ?.
And at British Final you would have 5 Judges on the E panel and two Judges on the A panel ?
