Qualification Round Originally refers to rounds shot to qualify athletes for subsequent events and to rank them before elimination and finals matches are shot. These are typically a 720 Round, or a round of Field or 3D courses. In some cases, such as common in Canada, where only such rounds are shot for a tournament to determine prizes, and no subsequent elimination or finals match play is shot, then the term “Qualification Round” shall be taken to mean the round(s) of the tournament that are used to determine prizes.

Editorial By Morten WILMANN, Chairman Dear Judges, Your committee has been very busy this spring. We have conducted two international seminars (USA and Thailand) and have corrected the re-accreditation replies, which included 68 answers from each of the 92 judges who sent in their exams. A quick calculation tells us that we had to deal with 6256 questions and replies, and we gave a personal feedback to the 92 judges on their performance. We managed also to “issue a Newsletter in between”, as well as to work on an updated Guide Book. Yes, busy indeed. At the same time I would like to thank you for your efforts put into the re-accreditation test. We are glad to announce that the achievement was much better than the previous test four years ago, which proves that international judging is moving forward, in spite of many rule changes during the period. Take a look at the summing up from the test further down.

  • FINAL Version
    FITA JUDGE COMMITTEE NEWSLETTER No. 66 – June 2007 Editorial by the Chairman Dear friends, This is my last Editorial as chairman of the Judge Committee. After next Congress you will have a new chairperson who will lead the Judge Committee elected in Leipzig. I was elected eight years ago in Riom and confirmed in 2003 in New York; after both elections I was named chairperson by the former President Jim Easton. I thank Jim and all other FITA Officers who gave me the opportunity to serve FITA in this period. The judge organization changed a lot to satisfy the new dynamic activity of FITA and the new rules. I am proud to have been an actor and a spectator of this change, but I think that my time is over and I have decided not to apply for a new term in the Committee. I am sure that the new Committee will be able to manage the “judge system” in this new century. I thank also all the FITA judges, all the friends I met since 1989, when I was appointed FITA Judge by my master and mentor Don Lovo: their friendship allowed me to spend a very nice period of my life. For reasons unrelated to FITA and the FITA family, I also decided to retire from active judging. I’ll miss all of you. The last job of my Committee before Congress was to perform the re-accreditation process. The process has been run according to the present rules. However, we (and you) have to consider that immediately after next Congress (when the new term starts) the new by-laws of Appendix 4 approved by Council will be effective.
