Gymnastics Australia                                       TRP Technical Regulations Part B

The Trampoline Gymnastics Australian Levels Program is a National Program and includes
all three apparatus of 10 levels. This system is split into the Levels Program and the “Guide
to Passing Levels”. All athletes participating in the Trampoline Levels Program must be
registered members of their State/Territory Gymnastic Association. This includes level 1 and
level 2 gymnasts.

Whilst the program provides an overall development program for use by both coaches and
performers, it is not intended to be the only source of reference for Trampoline Gymnastics.
Coaches should ensure that they are competent in the teaching of all Trampoline skills that
they present to their athlete.

The ALP levels indicate a measure of competency at each level by the athlete. Club coaches
and judges should ensure that their athletes demonstrate these levels of competency for the
specified competition. The ALP details the routines/passes required for each level and the
process of assessment. This program is available from Gymnastics Australia.

Each Australian state or territory is permitted to enter a team in all divisions; no alliance (e.g.,
UTA) or international team is permitted.

To assist with timetabling, each state/territory must enter provisional teams with the close of
definitive entries for Australian Championships. Member Associations are permitted to make
amendments to the gymnasts in the team up until the end of training on the day prior to the
preliminary round of the first International Stream event.

Team construction:
Each state is invited to submit one team into the six events specified above. Each team is to
consist of a minimum of three and a maximum of up to four gymnasts from Youth, Junior
and Senior per event.

No more than three gymnasts per team can be taken from the Senior International category.

Competition Format – Preliminary Round:
The preliminary round of competition at Australian Championships will determine the teams
that will compete in the final round.

Within the preliminary round, the top three scores for each round of competition will
contribute to each team’s total score. Please see below examples:

TRP:
Top 3 1st voluntary scores
Top 3 2nd voluntary scores

DMT/TUM:
Top 3 scores for Pass 1
Top 3 scores for Pass 2

The top four teams (states/territories) in each category will progress to the Team Final. If
there is only one team entered, there will be no Team Final, and the one team entered will be
awarded 1st place in this circumstance, as long as at least 3 of the nominated team
members competed in the preliminary competition.

Competition Format – Team Final:
A maximum of 16 gymnasts in one flight will compete in each final. All finals will be a zero
start. All gymnasts must wear state uniform as per Code of Points.

Trampoline:
Each gymnast in the final will perform one voluntary routine. The gymnasts who competed in
the preliminary round of competition must also compete in the team final unless withdrawn
from competition. In this case, there can be no substitution of gymnasts and the remaining
team members will contribute to the final result.
The top three scores per team will contribute to the final team score. The State/
Territory with the highest total score is the winner.

Double-Mini Tramp/Tumbling:
Each gymnast in the final will perform one pass. The gymnasts who competed in the
preliminary round of competition must also compete in the team final unless withdrawn from

5.5.9 Australian Gymnastics Championships - National Age Stream
Qualifying For Finals
The best 6 competitors from the preliminaries will participate in the finals. If there are 30 or
more residential competitors at the completion of the event’s preliminary competition, then
the best 10 competitors will participate in the finals. The finals will also include the top 6 or 10
residential competitors (if 30 or more residential competitors competing).

Team Events
For each discipline a team shall be considered as comprising all the competitors, entered by
a Member Association or United Team Alliance as team members, in each discipline.

The score of the team member or synchronised pair in each event, with the highest number
of points after the completion of the preliminaries, will be considered as the team score for
that event.

The winner will be the team with the highest total of the top seven (7) scores for each team.

An interstate team challenge shall be conducted at the Age Championships. It will be decided
on the basis of converting the scores of the Number 1 teams to a percentage (the top team in
each discipline being 100%) and then adding the four discipline percentages together.

The State/Territory or Alliance with the highest total percentage will be the winner.

5.6.4 Qualifying For Finals
Levels Events
The best 6 competitors from the preliminaries will participate in the finals. If there are 30 or
more residential competitors at the completion of the event preliminary competition, then the
best 10 competitors will participate in the finals. The finals will also include the top 6 or 10
residential competitors (if 30 or more residential competitors competing).

International Stream Events

5.6.5 Club Team Competition Rules
The club team scores will be calculated from the preliminary competition results only.

Only athletes who have successfully achieved the minimum DD requirement for the level they
are competing in can receive points for their club. For team points calculations only, if an
athlete has not met the minimum DD requirements, then all athletes placed below the athlete
at fault move up one placing, and the appropriate team points are allocated to their clubs.

The first placing, that has met minimum DD requirements, of each event after the preliminary
competition will receive 10 points.

2nd place to 10th place will receive 9 points to 1 point respective of their preliminary placing.
Only the club’s highest placed athlete’s score will count for the club score in each event.

A club’s best performing athlete’s points for each event is added together to obtain the club
score with the following allowances:
     30 best of the 42 possible events count towards the Overall Champion Title.
     10 best of the 14 possible events count towards each of the Discipline Champion
        Titles.
January 2018                                            Version 2                                    21/30
Gymnastics Australia                                          TRP Technical Regulations Part B

      5 best of the 6 possible events count towards each of the Levels Champion Club
       Titles.
      The club with the highest score is the winner.

In the case of a tie, a tie-breaker rule will be applied.
     The club with results from the most number of different disciplines for the particular
        award being contested is the winner.
     If clubs are still tied at this point, then the club with the most number of counting
        points for the particular award being contested is the winner.

A maximum score can be achieved of:
    300 points for the Overall Champion Club Title
    100 points for each of the Discipline Champion Club Titles
    50 points for each of Levels 4, 5, 6 and 7 Champion Clubs
    150 points for the Elite Champion Club (i.e.: 3x50 pts max)

5.6.6 Generic Discipline Rules – Athlete Level
A minimum of Level 3 must be achieved by close of entries and have been recorded on the
National database at Gymnastics Australia for eligibility to compete.

Athletes in individual events must compete in the level passed and recognised by
Gymnastics Australia, or may voluntarily upgrade one (1) level to compete. Once an athlete
voluntarily upgrades in an individual event to compete, then all subsequent national
competitions must be contested in that level, unless an official application for downgrading
due to special circumstance is submitted and accepted by the State/Territory and National
Associations. All levels must be processed with Gymnastics Australia by entries close.

All levels within each discipline shall have minimum and maximum difficulty requirements for
the qualifying (prelims) rounds. Maximum DD requirements will apply for finals. Double saults
are not allowed in Level 4 and 4A, and if performed will receive zero (0) difficulty for the skill.

Athlete Level Upgrades
The National Technical Commission will monitor Qualifying Events, State/Territory
Championships and Australian Championships to determine an athlete’s minimum level to
compete at the National Clubs Carnival. If an athlete has met the requirements for levels
above that recorded or entered for the event, then the athlete will not be allowed to compete
at the recorded or entered level.

E.g.: If a club has only processed or entered Level 4 for an athlete, and the athlete has
demonstrated Trampoline 2nd voluntary routine score and DD, or DMT prelim score and DD,
or Tumbling prelim score and DD of Level 5 or above during the calendar year of the National
Clubs Carnival, then the athlete will not be allowed to compete Level 4.

5.6.7 Minimum & Maximum Degree of Difficulty Requirements
For completed routines or passes that do not reach the minimum difficulty
requirement the following rule shall be applied by the Chief Referee.
The imposed penalty for not meeting the minimum difficulty for the routine or pass shall be
equivalent to the shortfall between the difficulty awarded and the minimum required and
deducted from each execution judges’ execution score of the routine/pass. Eg.: Athlete A
performs a 2.1 voluntary in an event with a minimum requirement of 2.3, then the penalty of
0.2 shall be deducted from each execution judges’ score.

January 2018                                   Version 2                                    22/30
Gymnastics Australia                                           TRP Technical Regulations Part B

  For completed routines or passes that exceed the maximum difficulty requirement the
  following rule shall be applied by the Routine Judge.
  The imposed penalty for exceeding the maximum difficulty requirement for a routine or pass
  shall be the reducing of the difficulty to meet the maximum allowed. Eg. Athlete B performs a
  2.5 voluntary in an event with a maximum requirement of 2.3, then the 0.2 excess shall be
  deducted from the difficulty performed, awarding 2.3 difficulty for the performance by the
  routine judges.
       Youth, Junior, and Senior have unlimited DD in Preliminaries and Finals.
       There will be no minimum DD requirements on final round routines or passes.
