NAIGC Women’s Rules

Women use FIG JO (Junior Olympic) skill values (from the 2005-2009 FIG JO Code of Points) and Level 9 requirements. Judges should use both level 9 and level 10 bonus to the advantage of the gymnast. D’s and E’s will be given additive value of .1 and .2 respectively and recognized in connection value. On bars, level 9 connection bonus will be used as this is to the advantage of the gymnast. Please check the USAG website for up to date information.

Vault values

This table outlines common skills and their values. The major changes in 2005-2006 were that wolf values on beam were devalued and split jumps were upgraded. The major changes in 2006-2007 were an aerial on beam is now a D, 1/1 turn with heel of free leg at 45 degrees forward or backward throughout the turn on beam is a B, and salto forward tucked with ½ twist on floor is now a B. The major changes in 2007-2008 are:

Beam: layout stepout is now a D (but only given C credit for connective value)
Beam: back salto (tuck, pike or layout) dismount off end of beam with ½ twist is a B

Note:
Although the FIG Code of Points can be found online (under Code of Points, WAG for Women’s Artistic Gymnastics) these are not consistent with the FIG JO Code of Points. The FIG Code of Points on this website outlines Elite rules and the skill values (not Junior Olympic rules and values). An FIG JO Code of Points may be purchased through the USAG website here.

Please contact Karen Heilman with questions, comments, changes, etc.
