Assign judges to apparatus

Map your judge profiles to specific apparatus and rotations so everyone knows where they're going.

You've created your judge profiles. Now you need to tell the system which judge sits at which apparatus during each rotation. This is how judges get their assignments in the Companion app, and how the system knows whose scores belong where.

Prerequisites

Steps

  1. Open the session and go to Judge Configuration.

  2. For each apparatus in each rotation slot, assign your judges:

    • Pick a D1 judge (difficulty) from the dropdown

    • Pick your E judges (E1 through E7, as many as you have available)

    • Optionally assign a Supervisor (S1) and a Video Recorder (VR)

  3. Save the configuration.

You'll see the assignments laid out by rotation index, apparatus, and role. If something looks off, you can change it before the session starts.

How assignments are organized

The system tracks three things for every assignment:

  • Rotation index tells you which rotation slot (0, 1, 2, and so on)

  • Apparatus tells you where (vault, bars, beam, floor, etc.)

  • Judge role tells you what they're doing (D1, E1 through E7, S1, VR)

A single judge can appear on multiple apparatus across different rotations. If your D1 judge on vault in rotation 1 is also your D1 on bars in rotation 3, that works fine. The profile is reusable.

Session-level supervisor

You can also set a session supervisor who oversees the entire session across all apparatus. This is separate from per-apparatus S1 assignments. Use it when you have a head judge or chief judge managing the whole floor.

Getting assignments to your judges

Once you've saved the configuration, judges need to know where to go. Two options:

  • QR codes — each judge scans their code to open the Judges Companion app with their role and apparatus pre-loaded. This is the fastest way to get everyone set up on competition day.

  • Printouts — export the judge assignments for printing. Useful as a backup or for judges who prefer a paper reference.
