[CGDA] Events Guide

CGDA hosts daily events including dance classes, tryouts, and practices. As a staff, it is asked you follow everything below when hosting.

Commands

Some information about commands is that. We use /e before writing the command. What this does is that it hides the bubble chat that comes when saying the command. It’s preferred but not required.

Introductions

Tryouts

/e :n Hello gymnasts! My name is [user] and I will be the instructor for today’s tryout.

/e :n Before we begin, I will start off with a quick rule refresher.

/e :n 1. Listen to all staff and be respectful to those around you.

/e :n 2. This is a tryout, so no redos will be allowed.

Stretching

After the gymnasts have performed a running lap, we will do some short stretching. Stretching is performed in both practices and tryouts.

  • Toe touch (in the backpack)

  • Front split (repeat this twice)

  • Middle split

  • Needle pose (in the backpack)

  • Scorpion pose

Sorting

If a helper attended, you will sort the gymnasts out. If there is 1 gymnast, decide on who will be her coach. If there are 2 gymnasts each can take 1 and as such. You will name the gymnasts and coaches/helpers if any. Each coach/helper will have a letter. And the assigned gymnast will have that same letter called. For example:

Coach peppa: A

Gymnast marie: A

Helper stella: B

Gymnast gorge: B

Use the :name command for such.

Procedures

Tryouts

During tryouts, you must repeat these steps. Always start with Vault unless the event is taken.

Firstly ask if they want level requirements or a demonstration:

Reqs or demo?

If none, use the command listed below and then say “Proceed!” or “Go!” If yes, say the reqs or do a demo.

Command: Use command “:watch or :view ”

Watch the gymnast and judge using the deductions on the deductions channel.

Afterwards use command “:rv” to watch yourself again.

Repeat this with all the events, but remember that vault is 2 attempts.
