Hi,
Have a question about judging/scoring. Some gyms have a judge/coach as the owner, obviously this owner/judge/coach can consult the gymnast on technical scoring. If a gym does not have a judge involved and lets say the parents/gymnast cannot get a sufficient explanation of some low scores from the coaching staff, is there such a thing as bringing in a judge lets say to evaluate each gymnasts routine and provide judging consultation/opinions. I guess my question is, is it common practice in gymnastics to bring in a judge to evaluate routines or should this strictly be a coaches thing. Are judges allowed to consult and evaluate upon request.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
