Kathi-Sue Rupp has a website dedicated to gymnastics judging.

It’s called Flipped Decisions.

Coaches will work towards the specific set of rules at their level of competition. It’s critical that judges apply those rules consistently throughout the season.

Summary: What Can be Done

• Assign judging panels early enough so that judges can calibrate in the time leading up to a competition
• Make sure the competition schedule permits judges to watch podium training or warm-ups
• Head judges need to provide detailed feedback to panel judges in a psychologically safe pre-competition setting
• Organize and participate in pre-competition and pre-season calibration exercises (like the NCAA Challenge) that provide detailed feedback.
