Judges evaluate the following parts of a dive to determine an overall score: Five basic elements of a dive When judging a springboard or platform dive, five basic elements need to be considered with equal importance before awarding a score 1. Starting position From the moment the diver establishes his starting position on the diving board or platform, a judge will look out for good body posture.
The diver may stand facing the water for forward approaches, or the diver may have his back to the water at the end of the springboard or platform for backward approaches and when in preparation for a forward or backward handstand take-off on the platform. Depending on the dive, the diver should be standing straight with head erect. The divers must submit a list to the judges of which dives they will perform in the round, and in which order.
They also must do dives of different categories, e. Haley Hernandez. The execution is the dive itself and to see if the diver followed proper form, technique, performance, and grace. And lastly, the entry is an important part as it's the last thing the judges will see and is the diver's entry into the water.
The highest score in diving will depend on the type of dive and the level of difficulty on a dive. There is no universally accepted "high score" for a dive. The level of difficulty is a predetermined number and must be multiplied by the total sum of the dive.
When judges are evaluating the dive, they must judge without regard to the difficulty. The highest score ever received for a dive was awarded to Matthew Mitcham at The highest 2 scores and the lowest 2 scores are crossed out.
These scores are discarded to help prevent any manipulation of scores from the judge's side. This then allows a more objective point of view on the scores and can discard any outliers. For example, if the diving scores are as follows: 9, 8, 8, 8, 7, 7, 6.
The two highest scores are 9 and 8 so they would be discarded, and 7 and 6 are the two lowest scores so they would also be discarded. Form is crucial when divers are preparing to execute their dive. Before diving, they must seem relaxed, confident, and in proper form.
Judges not only judge the dive, but also the "approach. The tuck, straight, free, or pike positions are important components of the dive's execution and should be performed with a great amount of control and flair.
The competition is judged on how they individually perform their dives and how the team synchronises their performance. When all seven judges in individual events have allocated a score for a dive, the two highest and two lowest scores will be eliminated and the remaining three scores totalled.
The number will be multiplied by the degree of difficulty DD rating assigned to the dive. The DD is predetermined with a table range from 1. A scoring example is shown below: Awards: 6 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 4 Total: 15 high and low scores eliminated - scores in bold counted only DD: 2. For synchronised diving events either nine or eleven judges are appointed to give a score between zero and ten for each dive. When 9 judges are used, two judges will rate one individual diver, two other judges will rate the second individual diver and five judges will rate the synchronisation of the pair.
The high and low of the four individual scores will be eliminated, and the high and the low of the five synchronised scores will be eliminated and the remaining five scores totalled. When 11 judges are used, three judges will rate one individual diver, three judges will rate the second individual diver and five judges will rate the synchronisation of the pair. The high and low of each of the three individual scores will be eliminated, and the high and the low of the five synchronised scores will be eliminated, and the remaining five scores totalled.
Forward Group: The diver faces the front of the board and rotates towards the water. Dives in this group vary from the simple front dive to the difficult forward four and one-half somersaults. Backward Group: All the dives in the backward group begin with the diver on the end of the board with the back to the water.
The direction of rotation is away from the board. Reverse Group: These dives begin with the diver facing the front of the board using a forward approach and rotating towards the board. Inward Group: The diver stands on the end of the board with back to the water and rotates toward the board or opposite of the backward group's movement. Twisting Group: Any dive with a twist is included in this group. There are four types of twisting dives: forward, backward, reverse and inward.
