  • Differences in Vault Jumps in Women Artistic Gymnastics
    Lucija Milčić1, Kamenka Živčić Marković1, Tomislav Krističević1, Miljan Grbović2, Aleksandra Aleksić-Veljković3 1University of Zagreb, Faculty of Kinesiology, Zagreb, Croatia 2University of Belgrade, Faculty of Sport and Physical Education, Belegrade, Serbia 3University of Niš, Faculty of Sport and Physical Education, Niš, Serbia Differences in vault jumps in women artistic gymnastics ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to determine the difference between vault jumps at old and new horse performed at the Olympic Games 2000. and Olympic Games 2016. in women artistic gymnastics. Research was conducted on a sample of 32 jumps. Sixteen jumps at apparatus (vault) finals competition were performed at the Olympic Games 2000. in Sydney, Australia. Other sixteen jumps were performed also in the vault finals, but at the Olympic Games 2016. in Rio, Brazil. Analyses of the vaults were done by video. Variables which are used was divid- ed in two parts: type of the jumps (2, 3, 4, 5) and rotation (180°, 360°, 540°, 720°, 900°). Type of jumps was: 2=Handsprings, 3=Tsukahara, 4=Yurchenko, 5= Half-turn entry. Differences between the Olympic Games in type of jumps and rotations were calculated by T-test for in- dependent samples and Mann-Whitney U Test for independent sample. Results of Mann- Whitney U Test have shown that at the level of statistical significance of p<,05 that there were differences between the Olympic Games in variable rotation. It seems that today´s vault is performed with much more rotation around longitudinal (LA) axis of the body, and around transversal it seems that they are the same despite the new vault table.

  • Women's Gymnastic Scoring
    Women’s gymnastic scoring What happened to gymnasts receiving a perfect 10 for their routines? In gymnastics a perfect score used to be a 10. In 1976 a young Romanian woman, Nadia Comăneci, was the first Olympic gymnast to score a 10 on any event in gymnastics. Her routine was flawless. You can watch her routine at here; http://www.yummymath.com/2012/perfect-10/. Ten is no longer a perfect score. So how will gymnasts be scored at this year’s Olympics? Beware; this is a very simplified summary of the new scoring for women’s artistic gymnastics. There will be 8 judges for each gymnast's routine. Two of the judges will give a score for the difficulty of the routine (D score) and 6 judges will rank the execution score (E-score). Each contestant will receive 2 scores for each routine ... a D-score and an E-score. § The D-score (or Difficulty score) evaluates the content of the exercise on three criteria: the Difficulty Value (DV), Composition Requirements (CR) and Connection Value (CV). • DV: The difficulty value of the eight highest value elements of the routine, including the dismount, is added together. Elements are ranked depending on their difficulty. Each element in a routine has a point value based on its difficulty, starting at zero and increasing by one-tenth for each subsequent level. Therefore, an “A” level skill is given a point value of one-tenth whereas an “E” level skill has a point value of five-tenths. • CR: Gymnasts must demonstrate skills from five required Element Groups on each apparatus.

  • Critical Analysis of the Performance of Women's Artistic Gymnastics in Brazil in the 2004- 2016 Olympic Cycles
    Molinari, CI.; Costa, VR.; Monteiro, KOFF.; Nunomura, M.: CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE … Vol. 10 Issue 3: 453 - 466 CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE PERFORMANCE OF WOMEN'S ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS IN BRAZIL IN THE 2004- 2016 OLYMPIC CYCLES Caroline Inácio Molinari, Vitor Ricci Costa, Kamau Osei Fregonesi Ferreira Monteiro, Myrian Nunomura University of São Paulo, School of Physical Education and Sport of Ribeirão Preto, Brazil Original article Abstract Women’s Artistic Gymnastics (WAG) in Brazil has been represented in the Olympic Games since 1980; however, a full team was classified only in 2004. Analyzing the Brazilian team’s participation over the last four cycles (2004-2016), we have identified several factors that implied in the WAG results. In this study, we discussed these factors and reflected on their contributions to the development of the gymnastics. The milestone of the 2001-2004 Olympic cycle is marked by the first participation of a full team, when foreign coaches came to lead WAG, the training system was reorganized, and the selected athletes began training in a centralized training system in Curitiba’s Training Center. The 2005-2008 Olympic cycle was more successful, as a consequence of the long-term planning. In the 2009-2012 Olympic cycle, the Brazilian WAG went through a period of turbulence, the training was no longer centralized, and the head coach of the Brazilian team returned to his home country. In the 2013-2016 Olympic cycle, with the headquarters of the 2016 Olympic Games in the city of Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian Olympic Committee devised strategies to boost the country’s success, which again drove improvement in the team results.

Author’s Preface It is clear that we are in a moment of massive cultural upheaval around gender . Stereotypical gender performances dominate television, film, and music. Our culture is overwhelmed with limited visions of gender that create distressing and unsafe conditions for those who do not conform to dominant cultural norms––from sexual harassment and assault to the rise in murders of Black transgender women . But this is also a positive moment . New visions of gender and gender justice can be seen in the #MeToo movement, in the many new gender expressions in popular culture explored in this report, and in the increased number of people who are creating change in industries and across society, despite not conforming to narrow cultural stereotypes of who can be a “leader” in politics, business, or media.
