for Individual exercises – evaluates the number and technical value of Dynamic Elements with Rotation (R) and Apparatus Difficulty (AD) for Group Exercises – evaluates the number and technical value of Dynamic Elements with Rotation (R) and the number and technical value of Collaborations (C)

–  –  –

In each subgroup of judges, short discussions are allowed if necessary. In case of disagreement between the judges, the decisive intervention of the Technical Delegate/Supervisor is required.

c) The final D score is obtained by adding the two partial D scores. The maximum Difficulty score is 10 points.

d) Judge D1 in Judge Panel D is the Coordinating Judge. He applies penalties for leaving the court, violation of the time limit and other penalties, in accordance with the table for the Coordinating Judge. The Supreme Jury must approve the deductions applied by the Coordinating Judge.

Functions of the D-Brigade after the competition (in Individual and Group exercises):

1.6. Difficulty Judges identify and record Difficulties in the order in which they are performed:

Judges D1, D2 evaluate the quantity and value of BD, quantity and value of S, the number of Fundamental Groups of the subject and write them using symbols. Judges D3, D4 evaluate the quantity and value of R and AD and write them using symbols.

1.7. The Difficulty score can be no more than 10.00.

–  –  –

2. BODY DIFFICULTY (BD)

2.1 Definition 2.1.1 The BD elements are contained in the Difficulty Tables of the Judging Rules (,).

–  –  –

2.1.4 Each Body Difficulty is counted only once. If the Difficulty is repeated, it is not counted (no deduction).

2.1.5 It is possible to perform a series of jumps or turns. Series: identical repetition of 2 or more jumps or turns. Each jump or turn in a series counts as 1 Difficulty of the jump or turns.

–  –  –

2.2. Requirement: A BD body difficulty counts if it is performed:

2.2.1. In accordance with the technical requirements of the Table of Difficulties 2.2.2. With a minimum of 1 Fundamental Technical Element specific to each subject and/or Non-Fundamental Technical Element of the subject.

Note: If the Technical Element of an apparatus is performed in the same way during BD, then the Difficulty is not counted (no deduction).

Note: During Fouetté or Compass turns: a different Fundamental Technical Apparatus Group or an element from a Non-Fundamental Technical Apparatus Group is required for every two Fouettés/Compasses.

2.2.3. Without one or more of the following serious technical errors:

a serious deviation from the basic characteristics characteristic of each group of Body Difficulties.

serious technical error of the item (0.3 or more).

–  –  –

2.3.2. If the BD is performed with a greater amplitude than indicated in the Difficulty Table, then the value of the BD does not change.

3. FUNDAMENTAL AND NON-FUNDAMENTAL TECHNICAL GROUPS OF SUBJECTS

3.1. Definition 3.1.1. Each subject (,) has 4 fundamental technical groups. Each group is described in the corresponding cell in Table 3.3.

3.1.2. Each subject (,) has Non-fundamental technical groups. Each group is described in the corresponding cell in Table 3.4.

3.1.3. Fundamental apparatus groups can be performed during Body Difficulties, Dance Step Combinations, Dynamic Elements with Rotation criteria, Apparatus Difficulties and Connections.

–  –  –

3.2.2. The technical elements of the apparatus are not limited, but they cannot be performed in the same way during BD Body Difficulties (with the exception of series of jumps and turns).

–  –  –

3.2.3. Identical apparatus elements during a BD will not be counted (see 2.2.1.), except in a series: it is permitted to repeat identical apparatus work during a series of jumps/turns.

–  –  –

3.5. Static nature of the object 3.5.1. The object must be in motion or in a position of unstable balance, and not just be clamped/held for a long time.

3.5.2. An object that is held/pressed for a long time is static:

“Holding an object” means that the object is held firmly with one/two hands and/or one/several parts of the body (not in an unstable position).

Holding an item for a long time means "longer than 4 seconds"

4. Dance step combinations (S)

4.1. Requirements to fulfill S:

4.1.1. With at least 1 Fundamental Technical Element of the subject 4.1.2. With at least 1 technical element of the apparatus with the “non-dominant” hand, i.e. with both hands (see 3.3.

4.1.3. The duration of Dance Steps S is 8 seconds from the beginning of the first dance movement. The steps must be clear and visible at all times.

4.1.4. Dance steps must be performed in accordance with the rhythm, tempo, character of the music and accents.

4.1.5. With at least 2 movement options, different: in modality, rhythm, directions or levels.

4.2. During the execution of Dance Steps S, the following is possible:

Perform BD elements from the Body Difficulty Table with a value of no more than 0.10 points (for example, cabriole jump, passé balance, etc.).

Perform elements of difficulty of the AD subject if they do not disrupt the sequence of the dance.

They come in those 8 seconds.

Include throws (small, medium, high) in the dance if they fit into the concept or if it helps increase the amplitude and dynamics of the movement.

–  –  –

5.1.2. The basic value (R) can be increased using additional criteria. These criteria can be met while throwing an object, while rotating the body under the throw, and during catching.

5.1.3.The value (R) is determined by the number of spins performed and the criteria correctly fulfilled.

–  –  –

Clubs () Asymmetrical throws can be performed with one or two hands at the same time. The movements of the two clubs in flight must be of different shapes and amplitudes (one flies higher than the other), or in different planes and directions.

–  –  –

* Note: direct reverse throw/return without stopping () – all items:

The reverse throw/return is the main component of R (part of the initial throw for R); in this case the re-throw/bounce must be caught for the R to count.

The criteria met during the re-throw/return are counted. The criteria for catching an object after the return throw/return are not assessed, since in most cases the height of the return throw/return is not equal to the height of the initial throw.

–  –  –

5.3. Selecting body movements in R 5.3.1. Body Difficulties Can Be Used:

With 0.10 rotation when throwing or catching Example: a single forward "Compass" can be used as an element with body rotation around horizontal axis. If 2 or 3 consecutive Compasses are performed during R, they must be performed with 1 step between rotations.

With a spin value greater than 0.10 (example: jumping and spinning 180 or more while throwing or catching): these spins count towards the number of spins in R and as BD With Body Difficulty during the throw if 2 basic spins start immediately after BD without intermediate steps.

With Difficulty of the body during the throw, if performed in accordance with the requirements for R (5.1.) Note: a series of 2 – 3 jumps with a rotation and throw during the first jump and a catch during the second/third jump does not count as R.

5.4. Pre-acrobatic elements 5.4.1. Only the following groups of pre-acrobatic elements are permitted:

Somersaults back and forth without a fixed position and without flight ( incorrect technique:

penalty by the Execution Judge) Rolls/flips back and forth, wheels without stopping in position and without flying (incorrect technique: deduction by the Execution Judge) “Fish”: a flip on the floor on one shoulder with the straightened body passing through the vertical.

–  –  –

“Split Dive Jump”: a jump with the torso bent forward followed by one somersault is counted in R (as one rotation); also in AD. During R with this “Jump-Dive”, the criterion “change of level” is added.

Example: “Jump-Split Dive” followed by two other somersaults = R3 (R with 3 rotations).

–  –  –

5.4.4. All groups of permitted pre-acrobatic elements and elements not considered acrobatic may be included in the exercise, provided that they are passing without stopping in position, except for a short pause to catch the apparatus during the execution of the element.

5.4.5. The same pre-acrobatic element can be used once in R and once in AD.

–  –  –

6.1.2. Each AD must be different.

6.2. Requirements 6.2.1. Each Individual exercise must have a minimum of 1 AD.

6.2.2. AD elements are valid if the base and criteria requirements are met.

6.2.3. AD elements are invalid in the following cases:

The basics and criteria are not performed in accordance with the requirements Complete loss of balance and fall of the gymnast Serious change in the basic technique of the apparatus (technical deduction of 0.30 or more)

–  –  –

6.5. New original item elements:

Coaches are invited to submit new Difficulties that have not been previously performed and are not presented in the Difficulty Tables. Original elements have the highest value among AD elements - 0.50.

All original elements of the apparatus must be submitted to the CG FIG Technical Committee.

A request for consideration of such an original element by the FIG must be submitted by the National Federation. The request is accompanied by a description of the element in two languages ​​(French; English), a drawing, as well as a video of an individual element or the entire exercise from the competition (on DVD).

The approved originality in a given apparatus of a given gymnast will be valid throughout the entire Olympic cycle. Other gymnasts can perform the same element without an originality bonus.

For original item elements when collaborating in a Group Exercise: If the element is executed with a slight blemish in execution, then the cooperation value is valid, but the originality bonus does not count.

–  –  –

8.1.1. All Jumping Difficulties must have the following basic characteristics:

Defined and fixed form in flight The height must be sufficient for the corresponding form 8.1.2 A jump without sufficient height to fix a clearly visible form will not be counted as Difficulty and Execution deductions will be applied.

8.1.3 Jumps not coordinated with at least 1 Fundamental Technical Element specific to each apparatus and/or with an element from the Non-Fundamental Technical Apparatus Groups will not be considered a Difficulty of the Jump.

8.1.4 Repeating jumps of the same form is not counted, with the exception of series (see 8.1.5). Same form: push-off with 1 or 2 legs (unless otherwise indicated in the table); number of rotations in flight.

8.1.5 A series of jumps consists of 2 or more consecutive identical jumps performed with or without an intermediate step (depending on the type of jump). Each jump in a series is counted as one Difficulty (see Table 8.2.).

8.1.6 “Split Dive Jump” - a split jump with the body bent forward, immediately ending in a somersault, is not considered a Split Jump Difficulty, but is considered a pre-acrobatic element.

8.1.7 In all Difficulties of ring jumps, the foot or other part of the leg must be close to the head (closed “ring” position - no contact required).

8.1.8 In all Back Bend Jump Difficulties, the head must be close to the leg part (no contact required).

8.1.9 Full body rotation during flight is assessed after the supporting leg/legs leave the floor until the leg/legs touch the floor.

8.1.10 Jumps combined with more than 1 main action (for example, a tapping jump into a ring), with a take-off with 1 or 2 legs, must be performed in such a way as to create a solid and clearly visible image of a certain fixed shape in flight, and not 2 different images and shapes (not “swings”).

9.1.2. Main characteristics:

A. Balance on the leg

a) Performed on half toes (relevé) or on a full foot

b) Have a defined and clearly fixed shape with a “stop” position

–  –  –

9.1.3. All Balance Difficulties must be performed with 1 Fundamental or Non-Fundamental element of the apparatus. Equilibria that are not coordinated with at least 1 Fundamental Technical Element specific to each subject and/or with an element of the Non-Fundamental Technical Group of the subject are not counted as Difficulties.

9.1.4. Technical elements of objects (Fundamental or Non-Fundamental) should be counted from the moment the equilibrium position is fixed until this position begins to change or in any phase during the development of dynamic equilibrium.

9.1.5. The supporting leg (straight or bent) does not change the Balance Difficulty value.

9.1.6. In all Ring Balance Difficulties, the foot or other part of the leg must be close to the head (closed “ring” position – no touching required).

9.1.7. In all Back Bend Balance Difficulties, the head must be close to the leg part (no touching required).

9.1.8. In the exercise, it is possible to perform one Difficulty with a tourniquet on a relevé or on a full foot at 180 or more. Value: 0.10 per full foot and 0.20 per relevé + Difficulty value.

9.1.9. The Turlyan should be performed only after the initial position of the Difficulty has been fixed, and with a maximum revolution for each impulse. Rotation, which arises from one general impulse, leads to the cancellation of the Difficulty value (Turlyan does not count as rotation of the body). When performing Difficulties with a tourlane, the body should not “oscillate” (i.e. without moving the body and shoulders up and down). Such an incorrect execution technique leads to the cancellation of the value of the turn + penalty for Execution.

9.1.10. Performing a turlyan on the knee, on the hands and in the “Cossack” position is prohibited.

–  –  –

9.1.12. A Fouette Balance is one Balance Difficulty consisting of a minimum of 3 identical or different forms performed on a relevé with heel support between forms, with or without the hands, with a minimum of 1 rotation of 90 or 180. Each balance form must be demonstrated with a clear emphasis (clear position). One Fundamental or Non-Fundamental technical element of the apparatus is required to be performed in any phase during the execution of this Difficulty.

9.1.13. It is possible to repeat the same form within one fouetté equilibrium, but it is not possible to perform any of these forms in isolation or in another fouetté equilibrium.

9.1.14. Balances can be performed on a full foot or on a relevé. For full feet: value decreases

–  –  –

9.1.15. Balances on other parts of the body or dynamic balances can be performed either on the relevé or on the full foot without changing the value or symbol.

9.1.16. Balances with the gymnast changing the level (the supporting leg gradually bends and/or straightens).

The first form determines the basic value; it is necessary to fix the vertical position of the body and the horizontal position of the free leg.

The transition from one form (support leg straight) to another form (support leg bent), or vice versa, must be visibly gradual and the gymnast must maintain a relevé position from start to finish.

in this case, it is necessary to add arrow(s) indicating the direction of change in the level at which the gymnast is located to the right of the symbol.

–  –  –

2. Pass forward or to the side (horizontal position) or with the upper back and shoulders tilted back

3. Forward: free leg horizontally (straightened or bent) or body back in a horizontal position

4. As the gymnast’s level changes, the supporting leg gradually bends and/or returns to the straightened position

5. Split with or without assistance, or the torso back to a horizontal position or lower

6. To the side: free leg horizontally or torso to the side in a horizontal position

–  –  –

8. Arabesque: free leg horizontally or torso forward or backward in a horizontal position or lower, split with or without assistance

9. Ring with or without hand, or split with the body in a horizontal position

13. Free leg forward, foot higher than head, with or without the help of a hand

14. Free leg to the side, foot higher than head, with or without the help of a hand

15. Free leg back into a split, foot higher than head, with or without the help of a hand

–  –  –

10.1.1. There are 2 types of spins:

A. Rotations on the foot: on the “relevé” (Turns) or on the full foot B. Rotations on other parts of the body

All Spin Difficulties must have the following basic characteristics:

Minimum Basic 360 Rotation (excluding Rotation Difficulty #6, 9.17) Have a fixed and well defined form throughout the entire rotation until completion.

Note: Well defined form means that the correct form assumed by the gymnast is held fixed throughout the minimum basic rotation;

minor deviations in form are an error in execution. If the form is not recognized or maintained, the Difficulty is not scored.

10.1.2. Rotation will be scored according to the number of rotations completed.

10.1.3. Rotations must be consistent with a minimum of 1 Fundamental Technical Element for each apparatus and/or element from the Non-Fundamental Technical Group in any part of the rotation in order to be counted.

10.1.4. In a series of identical Turns (2 or more), they are performed one after another without breaks and only with support on the heel. Each Turn in a series counts as one Difficulty, with the exception of a combination of identical fouettés, which counts as one Difficulty.

10.1.5. Different Turns are turns with different shapes, regardless of the number of revolutions (rotations); this rule also applies to Fouette Turns.

10.1.6. The supporting leg (bent or straight) does not change the Difficulty value.

–  –  –

10.1.10 Turns with a change in the gymnast’s level (gradual bending of the supporting leg and/or return to a straight position).

The first form determines the basic value. It is necessary to maintain a vertical position of the body and a horizontal position of the free leg.

The transition from one form - "skating leg straight" to another form - "skating leg bent" (and/or vice versa) must be slow, visible and gradual, and the gymnast must maintain a relevé position throughout the entire turn.

In this case, it is necessary to add an arrow(s) indicating the direction of change in the gymnast’s level (to the right of the symbol):

The supporting leg gradually bends:

The supporting leg straightens again:

The supporting leg gradually bends and then returns to the straightened position:

10.2. Criteria for increasing the spin value 10.2.1. For additional rotations on the full foot or other part of the body: +0.10 for each additional rotation over the basic 360 10.2.2. For additional spins on relevé: +0.20 for each additional spin over base 360 ​​(base 180 for #6, 9, 17)

–  –  –

2. Free leg back, body tilt back 3. “Passé” (forward or to the side); or with the upper back and shoulders tilted back

4. Spiral turn (“tonneau”), partial wave on one leg

5. Forward: free leg in a horizontal position (straight or bent)

–  –  –

12. Split with or without assistance, body horizontal, ring

13. Penche - bending the body forward, horizontally or lower, leg back into a split, or into a ring, turn on a full foot

14. Attitude or ring with the hand or with the torso tilted back

15. Fouette: passé or with the leg straightened in a horizontal position;

also horizontal position forward, backward, “Attitude”

–  –  –

1.4. The judges of Teams E and D must comply as much as possible with the modern level of rhythmic gymnastics, always know what to expect from the performance of a given element and how standards change today as the sport develops. In this context, judges also need to know what is possible and what is reasonably expected, and what constitutes an exception or something special.

1.5. All deviations from correct execution are considered Artistic and Technical errors and must be assessed accordingly by the judges. The size of the penalty for small, medium and serious errors is determined by the degree of deviation from correct execution. The following deductions will be applied for Artistic and Technical deviations from expected perfection. These deductions must be applied regardless of the Difficulty of the element or exercise.

Minor error 0.10: slight deviation from artistically and technically perfect performance 0.20 – 0.30 error: any noticeable and significant deviation from artistically and technically Average perfect performance Gross error 0.50 or more: serious and significant deviation from artistically and technically technically perfect execution

2. Grade E: 10.00 points

Score E includes deductions for:

Artistic errors Technical errors

3. Panel of Judges E 6 judges E are divided into 2 subgroups:

1st subgroup (E) - 2 judges who evaluate Artistic errors in the exercise 2nd subgroup (E) - 4 judges who evaluate Technical errors in the exercise Penalties for Artistic and Technical errors are added up and then subtracted from 10.00 points - this is how it turns out final grade E.

4 ARTISTIC COMPONENTS

4.1. UNITY OF COMPOSITION 4.1.1. Main idea: character

a) The composition must be constructed in such a way as to create a complete artistic image and express the main idea from beginning to end through the movements of the body and the subject.

b) The nature of the music must be selected in accordance with the age, maturity, technical level of the gymnast and ethical standards.

c) The character of the music must be in harmony with the composition of the exercise and the gymnast.

d) Different pieces of music must be harmoniously selected and combined, even if there are changes in the character or tempo of the music.

b. The use of different levels and directions of body movements, the direction and plane of movement of objects, must be clearly connected with each other by a single idea.

For connections between movements that violate the unity of the composition, deductions are provided each time:

transitions between movements are illogical, abrupt and unreasonably long; lengthy preparatory movements before Difficulties of the body stopping between movements unnecessarily d. The composition should not be a series of unrelated movements of the body or elements of objects. Deductions are provided for unrelated elements, incoherent parts of the exercise and lack of unity.

e. At the beginning and end of the composition, the gymnast must be in contact with the apparatus. The position of the gymnast at the beginning of the exercise must be justified and used during the initial movement of the apparatus.

4.2. MUSIC AND MOVEMENT 4.2.1. Rhythm a. Movements must be precisely coordinated with musical accents, musical phrases, the tempo of the music, the body and subject must emphasize the flow of the music.

running, jumping, walking, etc.).

c. Elements of objects characteristic of each object must be performed in different planes and directions, with different techniques, with different parts of the body, etc. When elements of an apparatus are repeated or performed on the same plane without modification, this lack of variety must be penalized with deductions.

1.3. Specific Difficulty Components for Group Exercise:

Exchanges (ED): Difficulty in exchanging apparatus between gymnasts Cooperation (C): between gymnasts and apparatus

1.4 The order of performing Difficulties is free, however, Difficulties must be organized and performed logically, smoothly transitioning into intermediate movements and elements, and creating a composition with an idea, and not just a set of Difficulties.

1.5 The Judges in Difficulty D will identify the Difficulties and record them in the order in which they were performed.

Judges D1, D2: evaluate the quantity and value of BD, quantity and value of ED, quantity and value of S, and write them using symbols. Judges D3, D4: evaluate the quantity and value of R, quantity and value of C, and write them using symbols.

Note on Ribbon: When exchanging ribbons, gymnasts usually have to catch the end of the stick. But deliberate catching by the fabric of the tape approximately 50 cm from the fastening is allowed, provided that such catching is justified by the next movement or final position.

Note on clubs: ED will be valid with either 1 club or 2 club throws.

2.2.2. Only exchanges with medium and high apparatus throws by gymnasts are counted as ED.

2.2.3. Exchanges for all 5 gymnasts can be of the same value or of different values. The lowest ED value performed by one gymnast determines the Group ED value.

2.2.4. A body difficulty value of 0.10 may be performed during the ED (as an ED value criterion), but it will not count as a BD.

2.2.5. ED requirements will be counted provided that all 5 gymnasts fulfill without the following serious

7.1. Subgroup 1 (D1 and D2)

–  –  –

1. Evaluation of Execution (E) of Group Exercise

1.1 Judging by the Execution Panel requires that the elements be performed aesthetically and technically to perfection.

1.2. Gymnasts must include in their exercises only those elements that they can perform absolutely safely and with a high degree of artistic and technical skill. All deviations from such expectations lead to deductions from the E-Judge Panel.

1.3. Team E is not involved in the Difficulty of the exercise. E Judges must apply penalties equally for equal errors, regardless of the Difficulty of the element or connection.

1.4. Judges E and D must comply as closely as possible with the modern level of rhythmic gymnastics, always know what to expect from the performance of a given element and how standards change today as the sport develops. In this context, Judges also need to know what is possible and what is reasonably expected, and what constitutes an exception or something special.

1.5. All deviations from correct execution are considered Artistic and Technical errors and must be assessed accordingly by the Judges. The size of the penalty for small, medium and serious errors is determined by the degree of deviation from correct execution. The following deductions will be applied for Artistic and Technical deviations from expected perfection. These deductions must be applied regardless of the Difficulty of the element or exercise.

1.5.1. minor error 0.10: (small deviation from artistically and technically perfect performance) 1.5.2. average error 0.20 – 0.30: (any noticeable and significant deviation from an artistically and technically perfect performance) 1.5.3. gross error of 0.50 or more: (serious and significant deviation from an artistically and technically perfect performance)

–  –  –

3. The assessments of the E-Team 6 E-Judges are divided into 2 subgroups:

first subgroup (E): 2 judges evaluate Artistic errors and issue one overall score (deduction); second subgroup (E): 4 judges evaluate Technical errors and apply deductions independently of each other (arithmetic mean of two central scores).

The total deduction from the E score is obtained by summing the two partial E deductions (Artistry and Technique)

4.1. Contact with the apparatus and the gymnast 4.1.1. At the beginning and during the exercise, one or more gymnasts cannot remain without the apparatus for more than 4 seconds.

4.1.2. If the apparatus and gymnasts do not start their movements at the same time, the different movements must follow one another quickly, within a maximum of 4 seconds, to avoid the gymnasts/apparatus becoming static.

4.1.3. During Collaborations, one or more gymnasts may hold 2 or more apparatus while their partners remain without apparatus (but not more than 4 seconds).

4.1.4. At the end of the routine, each gymnast may be holding or in contact with one or more objects. In this case, one or more gymnasts may find themselves without apparatus in the final position.

4.1.5. You can start or end the exercise with lifting (supporting) one or more gymnasts with support on objects and/or gymnasts. After the starting position, gymnasts must exit the lifting (support) position no later than 4 seconds after the start of the music.

4.1.7. Expressiveness of body movements - the collective work of the Group must represent an expression of beauty, elegance and intensity of movement by all gymnasts.

4.1.8. Variety 4.1.8.1. Changes – minimum 6

Explanation:

Rebuildings should be varied and created as follows:

by amplitude: size / latitude

–  –  –

4.1.8.3. Collaborations: Various types of Collaborations and organizations must be used, in accordance with the Collaboration Table (see Difficulty, paragraphs 6.3 and 6.4). Lack of variety is punishable by deductions.

Organization of collective work for Group exercises it is typical for all gymnasts to participate in the joint work of the Group in a spirit of cooperation in each composition various types of organization of collective work must be used and at least 1 of the following types of collective work must be present:

–  –  –

2. “Choral” performance – simultaneous performance by 5 gymnasts or subgroups of different movements with different amplitude, speed and direction

3. Execution in quick succession or “Cannon”: execution of one movement after another by all 5 gymnasts or subgroups. The movement begins immediately after the end or during the previous same movement of the previous gymnast or subgroup 4. “Contrasting” performance: performance by all 5 gymnasts or subgroups of contrasting movements: in speed (faster - slower), or in intensity: forte (strong, powerful , energetically) - piano (smoothly, lyrically), either in level (standing - on the floor), or in direction, or in movement (pause, stop - continuation of movement).

5. “Performance in collaboration”: each gymnast interacts with one or more partners/apparatus Note: it is possible to combine different types of collective work.

4.1.8.5. Subject elements: different planes, directions, types, body parts, techniques must be used. When elements of an apparatus are repeated or performed on the same plane without modification, this lack of variety is penalized.

Regular training helps girls develop excellent posture, the ability to present themselves and monitor their every move in everyday life, but only a few become champions. Is it so difficult to get a rank in rhythmic gymnastics, on what basis are they given and what are the other features of evaluating this sport - below.

Live and learn

It’s interesting, but experienced sports masters, even working as coaches, still continue to regularly gain new knowledge and skills. The rules for assigning sports categories in rhythmic gymnastics change periodically, as do general rules competitions.

This usually happens during the new Olympic period and greatly influences the performance of athletes. Some elements lose their value and have to be removed from the program, others, on the contrary, appear among the mandatory ones, and gymnasts need to train their body again, accustoming them to new movements.

Grading Rules

To receive a rank in rhythmic gymnastics, not only the coach, but also the athlete herself must know them. Over time, girls gradually master the exercise requirements they need and do not ask such questions when defending their titles. For those who wish to familiarize themselves with the rules in full and immediately, a special edition of “Rules for Rhythmic Gymnastics” is offered. They are written there on 250 pages, and given that some can change every few years, then hardly anyone will want to read them just for fun. For beginners, it is enough to know that each element has its own “price” in points. The simplest ones, even if performed perfectly, cannot bring the athlete more than 0.1 point, but if a complex exercise is included in the program, you can get a whole point.

A gymnast can increase her performance score by correctly combining certain elements. For example, for sequentially performing an exercise of 1 point and 0.1 point, you can get a total score of 1.2, since an additional tenth of a point will be awarded for the connection.

Individual approach

All categories in rhythmic gymnastics are awarded to girls only for completing the required elements in the program and gaining a certain number of points for the performance. Despite this, the performances of all famous champions are completely different from each other. This is due to the fact that the coach also takes into account the individual characteristics of each gymnast, creating a program that can show the maximum of her capabilities without focusing on her weaknesses.

For example, a girl does not have very developed back flexibility, but at the same time she flutters in jumps like no one else. Naturally, her performance will focus on jumping.

Mandatory program

Despite the individuality of taking into account the abilities of each athlete, it is prohibited to deviate from the rules, which means that mandatory elements must be present in the performance. Their maximum and minimum number and definition are also prescribed in the rules of this sport. So, for example, in order to get the first adult category in rhythmic gymnastics, you need to create a program of 10 mandatory elements. These should include one combination of two body difficulties, 1 rotation difficulty, 1 multiple rotation difficulty, 2 isolated waves and 2 pre-acrobatic elements at the beginning or end of a complex element. It is also necessary to make at least 8 seconds of dance tracks in the performance. In the program of masters of sports, there are already 12 mandatory elements in the performance, and their complexity has been increased.

As for working with apparatus, there must be risks of loss when the apparatus is thrown into the air and the gymnast at this time performs rotational movements. Here you can get additional points when catching a projectile without visual control.

Technical Judging Panel

Previously, the athletes were assessed by 3 teams of judges, but today their composition has been reduced to two. How are discharges given in rhythmic gymnastics? To be awarded them, the gymnast must receive an overall score from all judges with a certain minimum.

The first team evaluates the skill of performing the technique itself. It consists of 4 judges, two of whom write down on sheets of paper all the elements performed with the appropriate notations and, based on them, assign a point for working with the subject, difficulties in body movement and dance steps in the individual program. As for group performances, instead of the last criterion, the complexity of the exchange is considered. Two other judges also record the elements performed, but only evaluate the degrees of skill and risks, which in group numbers are called cooperation. Together they produce an overall score for the difficulty of the number, which cannot exceed 10 points.

Artistic Score

Second panel of judges evaluating appearance and the execution of the number is determined by the letters E and already consists of 6 people, as in artistic gymnastics. The judges give points for technical errors, artistry and overall beauty of the body. The overall score is also derived from the average and cannot exceed 10 points. Thus, the maximum score for the entire performance cannot exceed 20.

Thus, you can get a rank in rhythmic gymnastics by overtaking your opponents not only in technique, but also simply in artistry, that is, a beautiful girl in a beautiful swimsuit and with a good presentation of herself will definitely receive a higher grade for the beauty of her body than her plain-looking rival, even if she fulfilled all the elements with dignity. It may seem unfair, but this is, first of all, a beautiful sport, and these are the rules in it.

younger age

Girls can only get the 3rd youth level in rhythmic gymnastics from the age of 6, but many start training earlier. In fact, you can come to this sport from the age of three to seven. The first real achievements in children will appear at the same age. This is due to the fact that children only begin to feel their own body and be able to move to music. school age. Everything that happens up to this point is just some kind of physical preparation, and no one should focus on certain achievements at this time. Experienced trainers confidently declare that real awareness own body and competent work with the subject begins only in adolescence, when girls have long had ranks in rhythmic gymnastics in ascending order and have reached the level of MS protection. Of course, this only applies to a few who have not dropped out of sports by this age.

According to the program of the youngest category, young athletes are required to score only 7 points for one performance during a performance, which is achieved by almost everyone. This title does not require confirmation, and it can be awarded at competitions of any scale.

Requirements for youth categories

To receive the youngest category, a gymnast must perform in the year in which she turns 6 years old and present a routine to the panel of judges without an apparatus and with any apparatus of her choice. Based on the results of each performance, its score must be at least 7 points, which totals 14 points.

After a year, the athlete can already qualify for the 2nd youth category, and for this she must perform a routine without an apparatus and already 2 routines with any apparatus of her choice. To receive the title, judges of the 1st category must evaluate it and give at least 7.2 points for each program, which is a total of 21.6.

In another year, a girl can already receive 1 youth level by completing the BP number and 3 programs with any apparatus, gaining 7.5 points in each. At least 2 judges must have a republican category. In total, the athlete must receive 30 points for her performances.

Requirements for adult categories

An athlete can receive the third adult category in rhythmic gymnastics already in the year when she turns 9 years old. To do this, you need to perform in front of two judges of the republican category at any competition and present 4 numbers - 1 BP and 3 with any apparatus. In total, performances must score 32 points, but each must score a minimum of 8.

The 2nd adult category in rhythmic gymnastics is assigned after a year and is assessed more seriously. The composition of the performance is similar to the previous one, but for each program you need to get 8.2 points with a total of 32.8. The requirements for judges are the same.

At the age of 11, an athlete can qualify for 1st category if she already has all the lower ones. In this case, you need to score 70 points for numbers of a similar composition. In this case, you need to perform only in competitions with republican judges and the participation of at least 5 teams.

Mandatory confirmation of ranks in rhythmic gymnastics starts with 1 adult and above. It represents a double repetition of the result at other competitions during the year with similar statuses and judges. It is important that you are allowed to perform once as part of a group and once individually in the all-around or twice in the all-around.

Senior ranks

Receiving the title of Master of Masters at the age of 12 is not only honorable, but also difficult. In this case, you need to get 76 points according to the international quadathlon program, competing with at least five teams that already have such a title in tournaments of 1, 2 or 3 groups or twice in competitions of 4 groups.

To receive an MS, you need to score 96 points in competitions of only 1 group. Having achieved this goal, many quit sports because they get the opportunity to work as coaches on their own.

So, many now understand how discharges are given in rhythmic gymnastics and what needs to be done for this. It is important not to demand high results from a young athlete at the very beginning of her training. With age, she can open up on her own, realizing her own abilities.

WITH The competition takes place on a gymnastics mat measuring 13x13 meters, surrounded by an additional area for belaying. The modern program of international competitions includes all-around (one compulsory and three voluntary apparatus exercises) and a group voluntary apparatus exercise. During group performances (a group consists of 6 athletes), either two types of objects are used simultaneously (for example, hoops and balls) or one type (for example, five balls, five pairs of clubs). All exercises are accompanied by music. The choice of music depends on the wishes of the gymnast and the coach. But each exercise should be no more than one and a half minutes. There are some restrictions for projectiles, but they are minor.

IN While performing exercises, gymnasts must use the entire area of ​​the mat. Both hands must be involved in working with equipment. The projectiles must be constantly in motion, otherwise penalty points will be awarded. Exercises should last 57-90 seconds. For each overdue (less than or greater than the specified period) second, 0.05 penalty points are awarded. Each gymnast must finish the exercise in such a way as to touch the apparatus with any part of the body and simultaneously with the end of the music. During exercises, the coach is prohibited from talking to the athlete, judges or musician.

Judging

ABOUT Marks are given for performing exercises with each apparatus, but medals and places are distributed based on the sum of all points scored. The assessment is made according to three criteria - complexity, artistry and technique. In the individual competition, gymnasts perform exercises with 4 out of 5 apparatus of their choice. Three groups of judges evaluate different elements of the exercise. The technical jury evaluates the level of difficulty. The artistic jury evaluates the composition only from an artistic point of view. Judges look at the choreography of the performance, choice of apparatus, body movements, originality and skill. They also evaluate the musical accompaniment. The performing jury evaluates the degree of perfection of equipment control, expressiveness, virtuosity and technical errors.

N It is impossible not to note the fact that rhythmic gymnastics, or rather the assessment of performance results, is an extremely subjective thing. Serious scandals and even disqualifications of judges have arisen more than once due to unequal treatment of athletes.

ABOUT One of the most notorious incidents occurred at the European Championships in Zaragoza in 2000 with Elena Vitrichenko. Because of this, questions have been repeatedly raised about changing the judging procedure (similar to what is happening now in figure skating) or about removing this sport from the Olympic program.

Rating system

IN In individual competitions, the technical and artistic juries evaluate them using a 5-point system, while the performing jury evaluates them using a 10-point system. In group competitions: technical jury - 4-point, artistic - 6-point, and performing jury - 10-point. The comparison of scores in individual and group competitions is different. Basically, the points scored by the 3 juries are added together to arrive at the final score. The minimum gradation in individual competitions is 10, in group competitions - 20.

P When assessing performance, 0.05 points are deducted for minor inconsistencies and violations of accuracy, 0.1 points for small errors, 0.2 for average errors, 0.3 for gross errors. Points are also deducted for leaving the area and losing control of the projectile. Unaesthetic elements during performance are also a violation.

M The International Gymnastics Federation changed the technical regulations in 2001, 2003 and 2005 in order to emphasize technical elements and reduce the subjectivity of assessments. Until 2001, the rating was given on a 10-point scale, which was changed to a 30-point scale in 2003 and to a 20-point scale in 2005.

Doping

X Rhythmic gymnastics has not been spared the problem of doping drugs. They are taken, of course, not to increase endurance or increase muscle mass. The main problem of gymnasts is excess weight. Therefore, the main drugs used are diuretics, which, in turn, are prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

Requirements for gymnasts

U The exercises of the program represent free movement around the site, including elements of dance, plastic arts, facial expressions, pantomime, movements rhythmically coordinated with music without an object and with objects, as well as some elements of simplified stylized acrobatics (semi-acrobatics) in forms allowed by the rules of the competition, such like jumps, spins, somersaults, leg swings, bends, backbends, splits. Thus, the subject of study in rhythmic gymnastics is the art of expressive movement.

U Rhythmic gymnastics exercises are characterized mainly by voluntary control of movement. The actions of a gymnast moving freely around the court are limited to a minimal extent by any external, artificial established conditions, in contrast, for example, to the actions of representatives of artistic gymnastics. Therefore, one of the main tasks of technical training in rhythmic gymnastics is related to the art of controlling one’s body in natural conditions.

P The latter circumstance largely determines the structure of physical qualities, both necessary for practicing rhythmic gymnastics and developed by it. Obviously, in rhythmic gymnastics there cannot be a pronounced problem of developing and improving such motor qualities as, for example, static strength or speed strength of the muscles of the shoulder girdle, strength endurance, etc.

AND Among the qualities that play a big role in rhythmic gymnastics, flexibility in all its manifestations stands out - passive, active, extremely developed flexibility in hip joints and spine (Fig. 1). In addition, the specifics of this sport require the development and improvement of fine coordination of movements, a sense of rhythm, musicality, and artistry.

U Rhythmic gymnastics exercises place significant demands on the cardiovascular and respiratory systems the body of those involved. This is evidenced by an increase in heart rate when performing exercises of the classification program to near the limit, significant amounts of oxygen debt and oxygen demand. Training sessions are held at high intensity (during training, the average heart rate is 148 beats/min). In this regard, highly qualified gymnasts are characterized by a high functional level of vegetative maintenance systems.

WITH The false structure of the motor actions of gymnasts determines the need to memorize a large volume of relatively independent movements. This places demands on the memory of gymnasts, as well as on such qualities as performance, clarity and completeness of visual representations, and accuracy of movement reproduction.

TO The quality of exercise performance (expressiveness, artistry, etc.) dictates the need to develop the ability for self-control and correction of muscle efforts, stability of attention, the ability to concentrate and distribute attention, speed of response, quick thinking, quick wits, self-criticism, and perseverance.

ABOUT One of the essential features of rhythmic gymnastics is the importance of the compositional solution of voluntary exercises. The tendency towards a relative equalization of the technical and functional capabilities of gymnasts competing to win prizes in high-ranking competitions significantly intensifies the competitive struggle, victory in which begins to be determined by the originality and novelty of the composition of free programs (both in individual and group championships).

P The above features of rhythmic gymnastics mainly characterize the activities of female athletes in training sessions. The conditions in which competitions take place differ significantly from the training conditions. To effectively overcome the difficulties created by competitive activity (emotional tension, starting fever, etc.), a gymnast must have intelligence, courage, poise, self-control, perseverance, and a desire for success.

Is the body insured?

R Poison training lasts four to five hours. Muscles hurt. Nails break. Beautiful legs - even those with bruises (the program of the St. Petersburg team includes an element when the athlete kicks a hoop on the fly). Therefore, outside the mat, gymnasts have to limit themselves in physical activity: no motorcycles, no jetskis. Girls try not to drive cars, even in the passenger seat, in case there is an accident? They walk.

ABOUT However, it is not customary for our gymnasts to insure individual parts of the body, as actresses Gina Lollobrigida or Jennifer Lopez did (only at international competitions insurance is required). Although it probably would be worth it.

FIG rules for rhythmic gymnastics 2017-2020 in Russian

Major changes

Firstly, in the individual program the threshold of elements used increases: from three to nine (the previous minimum number was seven) in the total count, and at least 1 in each group of difficulties (jumps, balances, pirouettes). Also an unlimited number of risks, dance tracks and subject difficulties, but at least one at a time. In a group program, there are a minimum of four body difficulties without exchange and a minimum of four difficulties with exchange, but the total of body difficulties is no more than nine. Also more than one risk, collaboration and dance tracks. It is important to note that waves and rotational movements before or after body difficulty no longer carry an additional premium.

Secondly, you can now perform two exercises in an individual program to music with words, and not just one, as was the case before. In group groups, as it was before, there is a maximum of one composition with words.

Thirdly, it is worth noting that there are four fundamental groups in each subject and all of them must be involved during the exercise. On dance floors there must be at least one fundamental work, and body difficulties of no more than 0.1 value, apparatus difficulties and throws can also be performed.

Fourth, the way the cost of risks is calculated is changing. Now, no matter how many times a gymnast changes axis or level, she will receive no more than 0.1 for this criterion. Some criteria are also added and removed in the difficulty of the subject and on throws or catches during risks. The difficulty cost of the item is 0.3, but the cost to catch is 0.4. The cost of original elements is 0.5.

Fifth, the cost of some of the body's difficulties changes. This especially affected the calculation of the cost of pirouettes. Now for each additional circle on the half toe there is an increase of 0.2, on the entire foot - 0.1.

Modern system additional education ready to offer your child a wide selection of educational programs in various sports types creative activity. Rhythmic gymnastics is one of the most spectacular sports that has received widespread development and is becoming increasingly popular among children and parents. On the one hand, this is a sport of high achievements, on the other hand, it is a type of physical activity that contributes to the health of many girls.

After the 2016 Olympics, mass rhythmic gymnastics is developing very actively in the community: clubs are being created, health sections are opening, halls are rented - there is a wide network of institutions of specialized sports sections for rhythmic gymnastics in the system of additional education for children.

Cultivating sports leisure that meets the needs of each and every individual and at the same time does not limit anyone in anything, but, on the contrary, helps a person develop as a multifaceted personality.

IN last years and at present, the sports direction of rhythmic gymnastics places extremely high demands on the natural data and abilities of those involved, which is accessible to a very limited circle of girls. In this regard, every year more and more clubs and schools for rhythmic gymnastics for children of mass sports are appearing, in which everyone can practice in the absence of medical contraindications. In this case, mass sports work with children is focused on the physical improvement of the child and the formation of a healthy lifestyle.

The main argument that attracts parents to choose rhythmic gymnastics for their daughter is the sportsmanship of the gymnasts: elegance, grace, expressiveness of movements, originality and virtuosity, strong confidence and ease of performing complex gymnastic exercises. The harmoniously developed body of the “artists,” muscle strength, flexibility, agility, jumping ability, and spatial orientation have great attractive strength. Gymnasts are always determined and courageous when performing difficult exercises on the competition platform.

Sport in the understanding of modern society is not only a competitive activity aimed at achieving the highest results, but also pleasant leisure, pleasure and entertainment. Currently, all holidays include games with elements of sports; sports clubs, organizations, unions, societies appear that manage the sports movement. Every year the sport becomes more popular, the number and variety of types of which continues to grow. I am glad that more and more parents are trying to lead healthy lifestyle life, introducing their children to this sports rhythm.

Despite the huge interest in mass rhythmic gymnastics, we should not forget that gymnastics not only promotes a healthy lifestyle, but also helps children in hardening, acquiring important applied and vital motor skills, and unites people in the field of motor leisure. Only a few become champions, thousands practice rhythmic gymnastics for themselves. And after all, health is, ultimately, the main value of a person.

About judging

Judging. Marks are given for performing exercises with each subject, and medals and places are distributed based on the sum of all points scored. The assessment is given according to three criteria - complexity, artistry and technique. In the individual competition, gymnastics perform exercises with 4 out of 5 apparatus of their choice.

During exercises, gymnasts must use the entire area of ​​the mat. Both hands should be involved in working with the object. Objects must be constantly in motion, otherwise penalty points will be awarded. Exercises should last G15″ to GZO.” The program in group exercises consists of 2 exercises: the first with one type of objects, the second with different types of objects. The duration of each exercise is from 2?15" to 2'30".

For every second overdue, 0.05 points are awarded. The gymnast must finish the exercise in such a way as to touch the object with any part of the body while simultaneously ending the music.

Three groups of judges evaluate different elements of the exercise. The technical jury evaluates the level of difficulty - the difficulty of the body and the difficulty of the apparatus. The judge for the difficulty of the body can give a maximum score of 10 points, similarly with the difficulty of the apparatus (also a maximum of 10 points). The final difficulty score is the average score between the body and apparatus difficulty scores. Maximum 10 points.

Fundamental changes have occurred in the rules of judging of rhythmic gymnastics. Firstly, the so-called “risk elements” are now being assessed - highly complex elements, the probability of error of which is quite high. Previously they were performed for personal pleasure and for the public, now they will be given appropriate marks.

The performing jury evaluates the performance of exercises from a technical point of view - the degree of perfection of mastery of the subject, expressiveness, virtuosity and technical errors. Maximum score 10 points. The artistic jury evaluates the composition only from an artistic point of view. This is the third mark out of ten points - for choreography and music, that is, for the image.

Naked technique without corresponding artistry will no longer work. The use of music as a background, failure to follow the rhythm, insufficient disclosure of the image, and so on will be severely punished. First, it's important to strike a delicate balance between risk, high underlying valuations, and solid execution. Trainers “stuff” programs with super-complex elements, for which, if they fail, they will give the same mark as for ordinary ones - zero. In this case, it is necessary to forget about artistry and image. It is no longer acceptable to go out on the carpet and simply run away to the music. The judges look for the performance's choreography, body movements, originality and skill.

When assessing performance, errors are recorded, depending on their degree, and are punished with the following deductions:

0.10 points for minor errors

0.20 points for average errors

0.30 points or more for serious errors

Points are also deducted for leaving the area and losing an item. Any accidental dropping of the apparatus will be penalized by the performance judges as follows:

0.30 if the item is taken immediately

0.50 if the item is picked up after moving (1-3 steps)

0.70 if the item is picked up after a very large movement (4 steps or more)

These penalties may be supplemented by those of the coordinating judge if: the gymnast goes off the court (0.20 points)

Going beyond the platform of the object (0.20 points)

Changing the court or finishing the exercise in an unspecified place (0.50 points)

If the apparatus is lost at the end of the exercise (on the last movement), the performance judges give the following deductions:

0.50 point for losing an item, regardless of distance

0.30 points additionally if the gymnast, while trying to catch the apparatus,

does not finish the exercise along with the music

No deduction if the apparatus leaves the platform after the end of the exercise and

The final score is a maximum of 30.00 points.

In case of unacceptable discrepancy and if the judges do not agree, then

base score applies: Base score = (average judges score + score

control jury), divided in half.

Intentional errors in refereeing, i.e. The bias of judges in modern rhythmic gymnastics begins to interfere with the competitive process. Special studies on this issue show that the reasons that force a judge to admit bias are:

1. Performance by your student, your team or the opposing team

2. Fear of your leadership

3. Negative attitude towards the coach of a certain team, etc.

Unintentional errors in refereeing. Until recently, difficulties in judging competitions in rhythmic gymnastics were associated with the imperfection of the rules themselves, with their cumbersomeness. At the same time, the ability of the person himself to perceive, process and issue judicial information was not taken into account. Rhythmic gymnastics judges have to take into account a large number of performance components when evaluating combinations.

Studies have proven that judges are able to process 80% of sports and technical information - this leads to inadequate assessment of performance skills.

The next reason is the fatigue of the judges. Fatigue causes not only a weakening of memory properties, but also a weakening of attention. Weakening of attention leads to significant errors when assessing the exercise.

To social - psychological reasons subjectivity of judges' assessments include:

1. The inspiring effect of the performance (conformal reactions - compliance reactions,

2. The influence of a stereotype that determines some dependence of the judge’s assessment on

The Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships kicked off in Pesaro, Italy, on Wednesday. Bronze medalist of the 2012 Games in London, head of the athletes' commission of the International Federation of Rhythmic Gymnastics (FIG) and senior coach of the Belarusian national team Lyubov CHERKASHYNA told SE about how the new rules that came into force this year have taken root.

Elena SOBOL
from Pesaro

This year the rules have changed, and now an athlete on the mat can show whatever she wants, and it will count. Previously, judges only evaluated what was written on the card and performed on the carpet.

In principle, this is interesting; the gymnasts have room for creativity. And for those athletes who know how to change something along the way, this is very cool. As a rule, it works, and we’ll see at this World Championship. In any case, something will have to be improved, but we need to see how everything works in a large stream of the world's best gymnasts, hear some wishes from the federations and the athletes themselves. I will have a meeting with the athletes in Pesaro, I asked each of them to write their suggestions - what they don’t like or what can be improved. We definitely need to hear the voices of gymnasts. Although I understand that girls are unique athletes in this sense - they will adapt to any rules.

- At the European Championships, due to the new rules, were there any problems with refereeing?

You know, it never happens that everyone is happy. At that time, not everyone was 100 percent ready for the changes, so maybe the grades fluctuated somewhere, and there were some surprises for the public and the coaches. Everyone is used to the old rules, but now everything is a little new. And every gymnast, going out on the mat, starts everything from scratch: if you did it, get it, if you didn’t do it, I’m sorry. And this is good in sports.

STARS ON THE SHORE OF THE ADRIATICK SEA

- Pesaro is not a new city for gymnasts, but this is the first time the country has received a world championship.

Pesaro hosted 9 World Cups, there was a European Championship in Turin - the Italians have enough experience in holding competitions. Finally the World Championships are taking place here, I’m very happy. It seems to me that the gymnasts should like it here - there is a good audience that really loves every athlete who appears on the mat. This is very important, because it’s easy to root for the favorites, but you have to be able to support everyone else. The tournament is long-awaited both for the organizers and for the girls - it seems to me that many gymnasts love Italy, Pesaro - including me! I like the arena, the audience, I like that you live with a view of the sea - it takes away negative emotions, you recover faster. In a word, there are many advantages that the World Championship is here.

The leaders changed after the Olympics in almost all teams. What are your expectations from the tournament in terms of sports?

This is interesting, because every new leader must prove that he is number one in his team, that he will continue the traditions of his country. For many, this is a double responsibility, especially for the World Cup debutants. Realizing that you are competing at the World Championships for the first time and representing your country is very difficult! And I can imagine how difficult all this will be for the girls - especially the first outing. But I think by the time of the all-around on September 1, everyone will be in normal condition.

- If we talk about surnames, from whom do we expect success, who will be the leader?

Sisters Averina, Bulgarians Vladinova and Taseva, Belarusians Galkina and Gornosko. Also Salome Pazhava from Georgia, whose return many were waiting for, Ukrainian Dyachenko and Mazur, and the Finnish girls have quite interesting programs. In general, the level of the girls who used to lag behind has grown a lot - I would like to list absolutely everyone. I think that the top 24 will really be that way.

- Will the public miss Margarita Mamun, Yana Kudryavtseva, Anna Rizatdinova and Melitina Staniuta?

Certainly. In the first year after the Games, I always feel a little sorry for the new generation, because they will be compared with the previous one, saying: “Oh, but there were masterpieces there.” In a couple of years they will say the same about this generation, but this transitional year is always “missing” what it was. But I think we will still see some of the leaders of the last four years in the stands; as far as I know, the girls were going to arrive.

GALKINA SHOULD BE HERSELF

- Will Staniuta, who retired after the Olympics, come to Pesaro?

No, Melita won’t be able to fly. She now gives master classes around the world, and she gets invited a lot. She also makes her own program on Belarusian television about a healthy lifestyle - something like what Laysan Utyasheva once did.

- Was the decision to end her career easy for her?

I don't think it's an easy decision for anyone to end their career. Because this is half of conscious life, it is always difficult. It's even more difficult when you end up with something you don't want. But I think that this also definitely teaches life.

- After Stanyuta left the team, did you switch to working with Ekaterina Galkina?

I work with the entire Belarusian team, with Katya, Masha Trubach, and Anna Bozhko. And Alina Gornosko trains with us before the main competitions. We work as one team, but, of course, most closely with Katya Galkina.

- Is she ready to come out mentally - not behind Stanyuta's back - but as number one?

I think yes. Step by step she must understand it, feel it. In any case, it will be more important for me that she comes out as Katya Galkina - without thinking about whose back she was before and who is behind her now. Just let her be herself with her own art style, which is a crowd pleaser.
