The FIG Rhythmic Gymnastics Technical Committee (FIG RG TC) is pleased to present the Rhythmic Gymnastics Code of Points for implementation from January 1st, 2025, to December 31st, 2028.
The primary purposes of the Code of Points include guiding coaches and athletes in their development of rhythmic gymnastics exercises and providing a standardised, objective means of evaluating rhythmic gymnastics performances.
The Rhythmic Gymnastics Code of Points for 2022-2024 saw large modifications to most score components. At the timepoint of finalizing of the Code of Points for 2025-2028, the broad understanding of and the full impact of the 2022-2024 modifications are only starting to stabilize. Therefore, the FIG RG TC has concluded that a new round of reinventing the score components would be premature. Instead, the intentions of the present revision have been to :
- correct some problems identified during the 2022-2024 cycle,
- incorporate clarifications that have been provided during the 2022-2024 cycle,
- simplify some aspects of the evaluation, and
- improve the possibilities of a healthy sporting career for the athletes.
During the revision, valuable input has been received, considered, and respected from a number of entities:
- FIG Anti-Doping, Medical and Mental Health Commission;
- Meetings with top 10 coaches;
- Feedback from the FIG Member Federations;
- Round table meetings with the FIG Member Federations during World Championships;
- Continental Unions and their Rhythmic Gymnastics Technical Committee Presidents;
- Meetings between the Athlete Representative and the athletes;
- Through the regular dialogues with the athletes and judges during the cycle.
