* (1/8/08) Many of you have had difficulties downloading and
viewing the link to the symposium. The link that was
forwarded was correct. I was just on it, it is the correct
link. Here it is again, just to be sure: http://homepage.mac.com/mikelorenzen/Sites/JudgeSymposium/index.html>
If you are unable to view it, it is because of your
computers capability. Even though it is in sections on the
website it is very long, you need a fairly a high speed
connection and takes a long time to download. Since it is an
imovie format you must also have the correct software to
view. If someone in your area can access the site maybe they
would have a viewing and you could bring the popcorn! Good
luck. Carole Ide

*We are all responsible to know and follow
The Women’s Program Rules and Policies. Go to the USAG
web-site to order, if you don’t have the latest copy.
Signing the sanction
When you sign the sanction you are
verifying that the meet followed the Rules and Policies.
I know we are all so efficient that we like to sign the sanction
before the meet has taken place. Also, you are not in charge of
walking around and policing the meet. However, if you are aware
of a situation: improper timing of warm-ups, levels mixed in a
rotation, exceeding the maximum number of gymnasts competing,
or any other situation please let the Chief Judge or Meet
Referee know.
The Meet Referee signs the sanction
after the meet is over and is the final verification. If there
are any infractions she will note them on the sanction.
The Chief Judge signs off on the
score sheets. The score sheets need to be the official scores,
printed in ink, and include the gymnast name, USAG number, club,
age group.
Affiliation
The definition of Affiliation has been
changed in recent years. Please see the latest R and P.
The assigners and the Meet Referees are not always aware of your
affiliation. You are responsible for informing them if your
affiliation has changed. Also, if you are judging a meet and
you will be affiliated, please inform the Meet Referee early so
that the appropriate assignments are made.
backgroud checks
From
what I have been hearing, the background checks may not be
always easy to do. If you have had trouble with this, please
send a brief description/outline to the Il-NAWGJ Board.
THE LIBRARY
Judy Dobransky is coming in to the Navy
Pier Meet, early February. She can bring in library items for
you. Please contact her to place your order. Her e-mail
address is
