    Parents Vault Scoring best of the 2 or average of the 2

    How is the level 5 vault scored? I have been told that they take the average of the 2 vaults but I have also been told that they only use the best of the 2. We are in Missouri so I am not sure if this varies depending on where you live.

    Different scoring systems

    Hi! I have watched a lot of USAG compulsory level routines from youtube. It's fun to see other systems and compare them to our Finnish system :) One thing that I have noticed is that in US almost every gymnast got 9s and their all-arounds are 34.00 or more. Here in Finland there is just a few...

    Scoring required dance connection with unrecognized element

    In the required connection of a dance element with a leap to a 180-degree split plus a second (dance or acro) element, if the second element is not done in proper form, does the athlete lose not only the possible connection bonus but also the half point for the Special Requirement? (The specific...

    Scoring between states

    I always read everyone's meet reports and they are my favorite part of CB. I had a question though regarding scoring. I will often see someone post about their DD's state meet and the scores seem so low. In our state sometimes a 36.00 won't even qualify you to state from south/north state...

    Practice Meet Scoring/Review Sheets

    Does anyone have an example of what to put on a practice meet score sheet, to be given out to gymnasts/parents at end of meet? For our practice meet this year (new L3s and 4s only), we want to try something different by having the other coaches give out a ballpark range for score, as well as...

    Level 4 Scoring Changed?

    Hi everyone! I'm the daddy that my team's moms have turned to for scoring questions. I know it's only level 4 but the moms are a little frustrated that we seem to have no idea how scoring is done (and I am too). I have this scoring book and I thought I had made some progress in figuring it...

    Scoring

    I noticed when watching the Commonwealth Games this week that the scoring for artistic gymnastics has changed. I know it's been different for a while, but I just don't understand it. Could someone explain to me how the new point system works compared to the 10.0 scoring system? If I understand...

    level 8 vault scoring

    I thought I knew how this worked but now I'm not sure. My DD, 12 year old level 8, is telling me they average the 2 vault scores. I always thought they took the better of the 2. Does that change at L8 and higher? What if she has a vault that doesn't count?

    Question - Level 3 Floor Routine / Scoring

    My daughter's team has a local, non-sanctioned meet this weekend and I have a quick question regarding the Level 3 floor routine. (I'd ask our coach, but she's been away a few weeks for a variety of reasons). At our last meet, I have seen a skill done one of three different ways: 1. lay on...

    Optional Scoring

    Hello Everyone - Being new to the optional world (dd is a new L7), I have come to realize that the scoring process is befuddling. I pretty much have the deduction thing down from our time in compulsories, but this start value is making my head hurt. I understand that they have specific...

    Scoring optional routines

    I'm wondering. How do they score optional routines at the us challenge and other big events like that. I know they are scored out of 16. 6 of the points are for the difficulty of the routine, and the other 10 points are for how well they perform the routine, like in regular competitions. I know...

    Question About Scoring ?

    Okaaay , it may just be in BC but I dont know hence why I am asking. In BC our scores are out of 13.6 not 10 so a usual score in BC is like.. 50 or.. 52 any where around there. So I am just taking a wild guess here and asking if all the USA scores are out of 10 an than AA is out of 40 ? Because...
