Judges and Coaches
The text of the Set Floor and Voluntary Floor in the Boys ISGA 4 Piece rules is the correct interpretation. Any video clips placed here are a visual aid only and should be viewed alongside the text of the current rules (Cycle Two: 2020–2024). Both Coaches and Judges will also benefit from studying the notes which accompany the video clips and these can be downloaded.
Boys’ Video Clips – Set Floor
Pages 6 – 9 of the current ISGA Boys’ 4Piece rules should be at hand when watching the Set Floor videos. When the 1b clip was filmed a straight jump immediately following the forward roll/handstand forward roll was not a requirement. In the current rules cycle this is now a stipulated part of the sequence. The set floor is the same for all age groups: – U9, U11, & U14.
