I have been given the opportunity to design a scoresheet for an independent event company. I am trying to get it set up so that you should already know your difficulty score goin into the competition (assuming you hit) and its the execution that will be up to the judges. What do you think about a scoresheet like that? It basically lists what you need to max out and gives you ranges for what you throw? I know it sounds complicated - but its really not. It is similar to a CSG scoresheet, but a little more level appropriate and a "norm" applied to our industry. Below is an example (Off the top of my head, Im starting with level 1 and 2 so havent got this far):
Level 5 Stunts:
Release Move Entry to a Stunt
Inversion
Twisting Entry to a Stunt
2-2&1/4 Twisting Dismount
Quantity Stunt (1 or 2 man based to max. flyers in air)
5.0 - One of the above in the routine
6.0 - Two of the above in the routine
7.0 - Three of the above in the routine
8.0 - Four of the above in the routine
9.0 - Five of the above in the routine
The scoresheet will be out of 10 - but the "starting value can only go up to a 9.0. There will be a list of roughly 4-10 Boxes on the Right that will be worth .1 added to the score, so it could be any of the following (I am allowing this to be the event producers choice on whatever they would like their "style" to be - Ill just make some up for now:
3 Advanced Body Positions
Energy Level
Sync.
Unique Transitions
Assuming they hit everything - The score thus far would be a 9.4 - which leave .6 left. This is where you can compare and contrast the division. Say a team does a switch up and a full up and another team does a high to high and a full and a half up. This will be where the judge can add .6 for the overall difficulty to the team with more advanced released and advanced twisting.
I am truely having a "from a coaches stand point" out look on the scoresheets - I hate when people say "Team A did this hard stunt, and Team B did this easy stunt, but team B got scored higher" This will eliminate any questions. It says what you need to max out!
If you DONT like this style of a scoresheet - Please give me your input on what you think would be a better idea! I am open to adjust. I just know that I want it to be CLEAR and allow for teams to max out based on what their team does - I feel that this follows the norm of what is expected for the Level 5 division. I know I made these up - The EP will choose what he likes. Maybe he doesnt like quantity stunts. Maybe he likes TWO stunt sections instead of one. Whatever - you get the jist.
If you completely hate this and think it sucks - feel free to say that too. I am looking for honest likes and dont likes for the scoresheets - I know there will never be a scoresheet that makes everyone happy, but am interested in your opinions!
