Rhythmic Gymnastics Online Workshop

...for Special Olympics coaches, judges and athletes


Purpose

The intent is to allow each local to upload videos so that one or more judges can provide feedback prior to the qualifier. Having the actual score may provide a reference point and in reality, it is totally meaningless. Having feedback and training ideas is what allows a gymnast (and coach) to improve. Challenges for this initiative are:

  • Privacy - towards this end, the videos will be loaded into a private online area that is password protected and to be accessed only within the specific coach and volunteer judge.
  • Technology - we will probably have to try it a few times to get it right and then we will detail the steps and tools required.
  • Space and bandwidth - we can set a maximum file size and maximum number of routines per local and get feedback.
  • Volunteer judges - we will need a pool of volunteer judges who are willing to judge, to explain and to share.
