scoring

Hi, does anyone have any wisdom to share about the accuracy of mock meet scoring? We are not new to competing but new to this style of mock meet - ours was judged by a USAG sanctioned judge but we were only given the score on each event, not any kind of insight as to what the deductions are. I'm...

Wondering if a more "complicated" beam mount offers anything of value to a score at levels 6/7. The TOPS/HOPES/elite coach at her gym asked to do her beam choreography (yep, that was weird...my kid literally has no chance of being moved to that group, nor would we agree to it, so it was not...

Hi, in Aus is there a widely used platform for scoring? I have live meet pro but it seems it’s not used by all. Thanks

Now that Chalkbucket is getting fun again ;) I thought I'd pose this question.. I saw the thread about L9 getting a difficulty bonus, and am inferring (though perhaps incorrectly) that there are more changes to the code that will be in place next year. Somebody mentioned that a front tuck on...

Does scoring get harder as girls move from xcel silver to xcel gold? And then as they move to platinum and higher? Thanks!

My daughter is in Level 4 this year and I had always thought vault was scored as the best of two but her coach now thinks that they have been scored as the average of the two vaults all year. I'm curious if this rule has changed or if it is discretionary/varies by state? Also, if it is the...

Question about scoring? At lower levels are gymnasts given higher scores for more advanced skills? Or is it like the Olympics where they say what they will do and if they do that really well they can get a high score. Just confused as I’ve seen some level3 without kip get higher scores than ones...

Hi... total newbie question. My daughter is ready for compete her first season as Xcel bronze. Our gym hasn't given us much guidance on what to expect at competitions. In regards to the judges scoring, is it correct to assume the girls are scored on their form for their routines and for...

I posted this in the Parents forum but I thought it might be better suited here and get more replies. I would appreciate an explanation of how this bars routine was scored, from anyone who knows. This is an Xcel Gold routine, and I definitely see a lot of little deductions -- bent hips, feet...

Hi, I would appreciate an explanation of how this bars routine was scored, from anyone who knows. This is an Xcel Gold routine, and I definitely see a lot of little deductions -- bent hips, feet not together. But is there a big deduction somewhere? She scored a 8.2 on this routine, and...

Please help me understand state meet scoring. Say a meet has three sessions of Junior A kids in level 3, are there three state champions with the winner of each session considered a state champion? Or is there one state champion that is determined across all kids in junior A from across all...

My gym has decided to switch over to the new organization, NGA. Aside from the fact that no one really knows exactly what it's about, I had a question about the scoring. I'm planning to move up from Xcel Gold to Platinum this year. Although I'm not completely 100% ready (beam & floor are fine...

My daughter is in her second year at level 4. She just competed in her 1st meet this year and made a terrible overall score. Her coach told me she was doing great at practice and she was sure she woukd make state and mobilize this season. Our gym practices 3 days a week. No extra practice in the...

Is there a live scoring link for the men this morning?

My DD has been playing with various beam connections lately. So I tried to look up what they would be worth and I'm stumped - I'm not a gymnast or a coach obviously! So does anyone want to help me out using the FIG CoP. Free front walkover linked to a sheep jump I get this as D +C so possibly...

This may be the wrong place to ask I apologize if so. I posted a while back about my daughter struggling to test out of 4 ... well she finally did and got the 34 we waited so long for lol. This year she moved onto level 5 and finally got her first 9 ever. However it’s only been on the...

So this is our first year in excel. We did level one last year but our gym is just strictly going to excel for now. So since you can have more options on your routines is it better to let's say do a ROBH but it not be perfect or do a simpler skill and be perfect? Which would typically give you a...

Hello! I don't post very often, but was wondering if you wonderful gym parents and coaches can explain what is involved in scoring out of a level? My dd is currently not in a USAG gym, but does compete in gymnastics in a different league. She recently went to a Open Gym at an accredited USAG...
