Hello Everyone,

Welcome to week 4 of the Optional Judges Preparation Challenge!!!  This week we will evaluate NCAA routines on each event.  When you click on the links below, you will connect to YouTube and see the routine.  The routines are fairly high level NCAA routines and are more likely what you will see when you are at an NCAA meet.  Please keep in mind the following information:

·         These routines were selected from YouTube and there is no intent to embarrass or demean any gymnast, coach or program
·         The routines can be tricky at this level
·         Remember to use the NCAA rules or your scores will differ dramatically
·         After you judge the routine, determine your Start Value including and Bonus and your total Execution deductions for each routine
·         You can use any reference materials you choose
·         Next Monday, I will send out the evaluations by our judging panels and you can then compare your scores

Remember, you can do this by yourself, work in a group or consult with judges or coaches.

Have fun!!!

Week 3 Analysis

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to week 3 of the Optional Judges Preparation Challenge!!!  This week we will evaluate level 10 routines on each event.  When you click on the links below, you will connect to YouTube and see the routine.  The routines are fairly high level 10 routines and are more likely what you will see when you are at an optional junior meet.  Please keep in mind the following information:

·         These routines were selected from YouTube and there is no intent to embarrass or demean any gymnast, coach or program
·         The routines can be tricky at this level as many gymnasts may not perform enough skills or meet all the requirements.  However, we are not trying to trick anyone, only prepare you for what you will see when you judge.
·         Remember to use the Level 10 Optional rules or your scores will differ dramatically
·         After you judge the routine, determine your Start Value including and Bonus and your total Execution deductions for each routine

Hello Everyone,
 
Prior to providing the evaluations for the routines in Week 1 of the Optional Judges Challenge, I'd like to offer a few comments as I feel once the first evaluations are posted, there could be (and probably should be) discussion regarding the posted evaluations.  I'd like to provide a protocol in order to help everyone deal with any differences of opinion that may arise from this process.
·      Two scores will be given for each routine the Start Value including Bonus and Execution.  In addition, you will find difficulty values and element groups.
·      Each routine will have a write up explaining the guest judges’ views and scores
·      Since I am sure everyone will not agree with the evaluations of each routine a score range will also be provided.  The range will be a possible high and low SV as well as a high and low Execution score.  Execution scores could and will vary widely as some judges are more strict than others.  These execution scores are not edicts, they are only the guest judges’ opinions based on video review.
·      Like a competition, there are times when judges will see routines differently.  Since we cannot have a judge’s conference, please accept the score as you would in a meet.  It is just another judges viewpoint and we can all see things differently.
·      I encourage everyone to find another judge to work with so you can discuss the routines and scores
·      Learning only occurs when you participate, listen, and challenge your perspectives.  You don't have to agree.
·      Please do not email me to complain about the scores!

Week 4
 
 
Hello Everyone,

To view the routine evaluations for week 4 of the Compulsory Judge’s Prepartion click on the link below.

As you review the routines and the evaluations, please keep in mind the evaluations are designed to help “guide” you toward a proper score range and evaluation of each routine. Since we are in the first year of new compulsories routines and associated rules, there will be many interpretations of the rules that will need to be clarified. Since this will be an ongoing process in the JO program, these evaluations are based on the rules as we know them today.

On Wednesday, September 26, the week 5 routines will be posted on the NGJA website.

I hope you find these routines as helpful in beginning to learn the newJO rules.

Have fun,

Mike Juszczyk, NGJA Technical VP

Week 3

 Hello Everyone,

Due to some "technical difficulties", the Week 3 compulsory links are not working properly.  Some of the routine links do not take you to the correct levels and attempting to judge the routines will be very difficult.

As a result, PLEASE DO NOT JUDGE THE WEEK 3 ROUTINES!  A new set of links will be sent out next week with instructions.

I am very sorry for this inconvenience.

Mike Juszczyk
NGJA Technical VP

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to week 3 of the Judges Preparation Challenge!!!  At this time I do not have enough good Level 7 routines for you to judge.  I should have these routines ready in a few weeks and we will then judge 2  weeks of level 7 at the end.

This week we will go back and evaluate level 4 and 5 routines on each event one more time.  When you click on the links below, you will connect to YouTube and see the routine.  The routines are not high level as this is the first year of the new compulsories. However, they are more likely what you will see at the first competitions of the year.

Level 4 & 5 Routines - Removed due to linking difficulties.  New routines will be posted next week.

As you review the routines and the evaluations, please keep in mind the evaluations are designed to help “guide” you toward a proper score range and evaluation of each routine.  Since we are in the first year of new compulsories routines and associated rules, there will be many interpretations of the rules that will need to be clarified.  Since this will be an ongoing process in the JO program, these evaluations are based on the rules as we know them today. 

Week 1

Week 1 Routine Evaluations

 

Welcome to week 1 of the Compulsory Judges Trial!!!  This week we will evaluate level 4 and 5 routines on each event.  When you click on the links below, you will connect to YouTube and see the routine.  The routines are not high level routines and are a little rough as they are just being done for the firnst time.  Also, these routines are in gym settings so you may see the gymnasts in workout clothes (do not deduct for this).  Since these are gymnast performing these routines in their first year, this is likely what you will see when you are at a junior meet.  Please keep in mind the following information:

·       These routines were submitted by coaches and put on YouTube.   There is no intent to embarrass or demean any gymnast, coach or program

·       The routines can be tricky since they are new.  You may find missing or added skills.

·       After you judge the routine, determine your Start Value including Bonus and your total Execution deductions for each routine

·       You can use any reference materials you choose

·       Next Monday, I will send out the evaluations for each routine and you can compare your scores.

Remember, you can do this by yourself, work in a group or consult with judges or coaches.  Have fun!!!
