you cannot judge a close family member

At FIG meets.

  • The EC decided the definition of “Close family relative” which is mentioned in General Judges’ Rules Art. 1 and in the Code of Ethics as follows:
  • Judges shall recuse themselves if
    – they are or were married to or live in a registered partnership or co-habit with a gymnast
    – they are related to a gymnast by birth or marriage in direct or in collateral line, including the following persons: grandparent, parent, uncle, aunt, brother, sister, child, grandchild, nephew and cousin.
    The definition shall be applied immediately.
