Handle vault scoring
Vault works differently from every other apparatus. Gymnasts may perform one or two vaults, and the meet organizer decides how those scores combine.
On bars, beam, and floor, there's one routine and one score. Vault breaks that pattern. A gymnast might perform two vaults, and the way those two scores feed into the all-around depends on how the meet organizer configured the level. This page covers how that works and how to enter vault scores correctly.
Prerequisites
You are entering scores through the Judges Companion app or the admin interface.
The meet organizer has configured the vault scoring decision for each level.
Vault scoring decisions
The meet organizer picks one of these options for each level:
One Vault Only
Only the first vault counts toward all-around. The second vault, if performed, is ignored.
Two Vault Average
Both vaults are scored, and their average is used for all-around.
Two Vault Best
Both vaults are scored, and the higher of the two is used for all-around.
This is set at the level, not the meet. So your CCP levels might use one-vault-only while your Xcel levels use two-vault-average, all in the same competition.
Entering two vault scores
In the Judges Companion app
Enter the first vault as you would any other score: D score, E deductions, neutral deductions.
Submit the first vault.
Tap Add Second Vault.
Enter the second vault's D and E scores.
Submit both.
In the admin interface
Enter the first vault score in the scoring section.
Add the second vault score in the second vault section below it.
Save. Both scores are stored together.
How vault scores are calculated
Each vault is scored individually:
Start Value = Initial Execution + Difficulty + Bonus
Final Score = Execution Score + Difficulty + Bonus - Neutral Deductions
For the all-around total, the system applies whichever scoring decision the organizer chose: one vault, the average, or the best.
Second vault details
The second vault has its own score ID (the first vault's ID with a _2 suffix). It can be revoked independently of the first vault. If the second vault is revoked, the system falls back to one-vault-only scoring automatically, so the gymnast's all-around total still works.
