NEW – NCAA Judges Evaluation System
This season, for the first time, judges are being evaluated on their scores compared with a panel reviewing routines.
I ASSuME the judges over-scoring routines Florida v Georgia, Jan. 24th, 2025 will be evaluated severely.
For 2025 there may be no consequences for being off target score. But hopefully that happens sooner rather than later. Some are deliberately giving impossible scores because there is so little accountability.
To learn more, listen to an interesting interview with panelists on the All Things Gymnastics Podcast.

training Layout Jaeger in a belt
Personally, I’m not a big fan of using a belt for same Bar releases.
It works — but can make it difficult for some gymnasts to get OUT of the belt.
That said, IF you use a belt, do as few repetitions in it as possible.

Cast Handstand Challenge
I’ve used a system like this many times for Swing Handstand on Parallel Bars.
BUT have never tried it for Cast.
You could try it for both Straight Body and Straddle Up Cast Handstand.
