2 ADDENDUM A USA Roller Sports World Class Athlete Endowment Fund Polices & Procedures Goal: To provide a permanent source of travel funds for all world class athletes representing USA Roller Sports in international competitions. All gifts and grants received shall be added to the principal of the endowment fund and remain fully invested. Gifts received throughout the year shall be forwarded to the investment account on a quarterly basis. Any gift or grant received exceeding $10,000 shall be deposited into the investment account immediately. Donors may specify a particular team/discipline but may not direct funds to a specific individual. Funds may be harvested up to 5% of the market value of the fund using a 5 year trailing average, provided the principal not be invaded. The rate of harvest will be set by the finance committee. No earnings will be harvested until the fund reaches $100,000 in principal & earnings. Harvested funds may be expended for athlete travel only. Travel will include transportation, housing, and per diem for food and misc. expenses (based on $40/day or current USA Roller Sports guidelines). Funds may not be used for team coach, manager, or other USA Roller Sports official. Once the fund reaches $100,000 in the aggregate, harvest may be withdrawn from the investment account as follows (listed in priority of funding): 1. Per Diem for donor designated teams. Per Diem for all teams at a $100 per individual minimum. If funds are not available for all team members to receive the minimum, grants will be given based on a random drawing. This amount would be adjusted accordingly when the host country provides athlete meals. 2. Transportation round trip coach air fare from athletes home airport to official competition site as approved by USA Roller Sports. 3. Lodging based on double occupancy at official USA Roller Sports headquarters hotel. 4. Each discipline shall be included in the harvest for at least one international event per year. All discipline s shall receive funding for its first event, before a 2 nd or 3 rd event would be considered, pending availability of funds. Should a discipline not participate in an international event in one year, allocation would carry over to the next year. If a particular team receives direct funding from other sponsors (i.e. USOC, FIRS, PASO, corporate sponsorships, etc.), that team shall not be a part of the endowment harvest calculation for that specific year. A full and complete accounting of all revenues (gifts, grants & earnings) and expenditures (travel by athlete & administrative fees) from the fund shall be prepared annually and presented at the spring Board of Directors meeting. Quarterly reports will be furnished to the Finance Committee. Calculation of the harvest for the coming budget year shall be presented to the Finance Committee for review and approval. Once approved, it shall be included in the USA-RS annual operating budget. Any funds unspent in the annual operating budget from the endowment fund shall be returned to the endowment fund s investment account for subsequent harvest.

3 Guidelines for Sport Committees. Committee, John Gustafson, Mark Vittese, Charlotte Nicholson, Billy Sisson, Ed Harney and Dan Brown as Chair Pursuant to a Directive 17, 4/15/12, the following represents a proposal to the USARS Board of Directors, outlining duties and responsibilities of Sport Committees. The text below that has been italicized has been adopted by previous BOD for all committees, with some proposed clarifying language inserted. That language is in bold regular font. Committee Procedure The Chairman shall submit a written request to the Executive Director of USA Roller Sports to hold a face to face meeting or conference call meeting. The request shall include the purpose of the meeting, a detailed agenda, whether it is to be a telephone, or similar, conference call or a meeting requiring travel, its time, location, related travel and expense budget for the meeting. Once permission to hold the meeting is acquired, the chairman will then notify the committee members of the meeting, insuring that they have adequate time to respond as to their availability. The approved agenda should be distributed prior to the meeting. Under no circumstances shall an impromptu meeting be held without adequate notification to all members of the committee. Committee meetings should not necessarily be held during Championships as fatigue, emotion and lack of total concentration are sometimes reflected by poor results of such meetings. Each committee chairman should establish a time line for the receipt of submitted materials for the meeting and for dissemination to others for comment. The material will then be compiled into an agenda format and mailed ( ed) to committee members prior to the established date of the committee meeting. The chairman should make sure the objectives of the meeting are clear and are met throughout the discussion. When meeting by conference call, the Chairman should encourage participation by introducing each participant at the start of the meeting and asking each person to identify themselves before speaking. During all meetings the Committee should summarize and agree upon the outcome of each subject before moving on to the next item on the agenda. Committee members shall arrive to a consensus decision on all matters, not by majority vote, whenever possible. Consensus is defined by which, the members of the committee have arrived to general agreement whereby they may not exactly agree with the decision of the committee but can support the decision of the committee. When consensus has not been used in a decision, then the minute taker is to record the vote count, yea vs nea. All motions by committee shall record a vote tally when there is a dissenting vote. When supported by all members, a phrase supported unanimously or similar shall be inserted into the minutes. Minutes of the meetings shall be documented and distributed to the committee for approval within 10 days of the end of the committee meeting. Committee members shall have a maximum 10 day period to provide corrections to the Chair. After corrections have been made and approved, the committee chair shall publish those minutes to all current board members. The purpose of this action is to keep the USARS Board of Directors current with all actions occurring in the Sport Committees.

4 Budgets and Committee Finances Annual Sport Committee projected expenses, including travel budgets, shall be submitted to and approved by the Finance Committee by all committees within 30 days of committee formulation. Annual review of performance to the budget will be the responsibility of the Treasurer, who will review such performance to the Committee Chair. Travel reimbursements shall be subject to the approved policies adopted by the USARS Board of Directors. SPORT COMMITTEE AUTHORITY The Sport Committees have been granted the authority by the Board of Directors to govern its specific sport discipline of Roller Sports, including, but not limited to, grassroots programs, rules, divisions, competition guidelines, coaches and officials training and certification, either by its action or through its sub-committee action subsequently approved, by that specific Sport Committee. All Sport Committee actions are to be ratified 1 or not, by the USA Roller Sports Board of Directors at its next official convening meeting. Final jurisdiction of all USA Roller Sports rules, guidelines and activity acted upon by the Sport Committees remains with the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall attempt to limit its involvement with committee actions primarily to ensure that the established committee guidelines are followed and make no attempt to micromanage the committees activities, rather it should provide guidance and direction. It is the responsibility of the Sport Committees to follow BOD established procedures, ensuring all decisions are made according to the rules adopted, being certain to do their DUE DILIGENCE on all matters. CHANGES THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE COMPETITIVE STRUCTURE Any changes that do not affect the competitive structure can be considered for immediate implementation by the (BOD) Sport Committee upon ratification by the Executive Committee or Board of Directors, provided proper review procedures have been followed. CHANGES THAT AFFECT THE COMPETITIVE STRUCTURE Any change that affects the competitive structure, not limited to age, division structure, division eligibility or competitive requirements, must be submitted to the National Office 30 days prior to the Annual Meeting or no later than December 1 of the current season convening of the Sport Committee meeting. Such recommended changes will be presented to the Board of Directors at the Semi-Annual held in February Sport Committee for consideration who will then do their Due Diligence which may include following the USARS rule GR to take effect September 1 only after Sport Committee approval and USARS Board of Directors ratification, January 1 of the next competitive season. Only in extreme circumstances are changes considered without adhering to this timeline.

7 ADDENDUM C USARS INLINE HOCKEY COMMITTEE BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING REPORT Reno, Nevada 2013 USARS INLINE HOCKEY COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP: Brent Benson - Staff Director, George Pickard (Chairman) Nebraska, Keith Noll Wisconsin, Arlene Lehman Colorado, Mark Vittese New Jersey, Jon Roux Pennsylvania, Jetta Rackleff (Athlete) - Oregon and Charlotte Nicholson (Athlete) North Carolina. Committee procedures: All members of the Inline Hockey Committee are active participants in the administration of USARS and AAU inline hockey tournaments and championships. As meet officials, they interface directly with one another throughout the season. The two athlete members of the committee were participants on Team USA for the 2012 FIRS Women's World Inline Roller Hockey Championship. In addition to this, we maintain open committee networking via telephone and . All members of the committee have been solicited via for their input in preparing this report. THE 2013 WORLD GAMES INLINE HOCKEY EVENT is this year in Cali, Colombia. The multi-sport IGA International World Games, as presented every four years will again include inline roller hockey as one of its participating sports. The staging of the first Inline Hockey World Championships in Colombia last year was not without its problems, and necessitated expenditures for a skating floor and hockey boards. These financial challenges were overcome and this equipment and tournament experience will benefit the 2013 World Games inline hockey. The starting date for inline roller hockey events is July 26, Closing date is July 30, Date of Arrival (with allowance of a jet lag day) July 24 and departure July 31, Between arrival and departure dates, the Organizing Committee will pay for accommodations and meals including 112 Inline Hockey Athletes and 18 Officials. This year there will be an expansion to 8 inline hockey teams from 6 in previous years, with 14 players allowed per team. (8 X 14 = 112). Officials include 8 team coaches and 6 referees. The appointed FIRS inline hockey coordinator is Steve Marcoux, a former Canadian now a citizen and resident of Colombia. The rapport between Marcoux and the Cali World Games Organizing Committee has been good. Marcoux also has the confidence and support of CIRILH President Gilbert Portier and our CIRILH representative Keith Noll. INLINE HOCKEY WORLD TEAM SELECTION FOR 2013 The USARS Inline Hockey Committee held its 2013 World Championship Team USA tryouts at the San Diego Olympic Training Center for all divisions, Senior Men and Junior Men & the Senior Women and Junior Women teams. Former Men s World Champions Team USA coach Joe Noris has a new hockey rink in San Diego and will host the trials. The World Championships being held in Anaheim, California and the attraction of the OTC, should facilitate the recruitment of our best teams to represent the United States at the Worlds which is home this year in Calif. While we don t think anyone can argue with the success of last year's resume' procedure for team selection by committee, in as much as our teams experienced outstanding success at much lower cost for interested athletes. We believe that with the next World Championships in Southern California we will have no shortage of athletes trying out for the 2013 teams. For this reason we returned to physical trials so that athletes both new and old could be directly compared for team participation in The 2013 Junior Women will have their inaugural FIRS World Championship event this summer in Anaheim.

8 2013 Women's Selection Committee (Senior and Junior) Administrative only: Keith Noll Office staff: Peggy Young & Brent Benson Chalie Sgrillo - Women s Head Coach Dave Marmorstein - Women s Assistant Coach Jeff Manning - Junior Women s Head Coach Mark Vittese -USARS Board Member Don Molnar - USARS Hockey Committee Athlete: No reason was provided for not showing up. Athlete Joy Garvey was original choice. From the trials, 12 female skaters and 2 goalies were selected. We received resume' applications from 2 players, which because of their experience we will add to the team roster. Almost all the skaters and goalies are local California girls, as are the resume' players. The Senior Women are basically paying their own way and we are able to get equipment donated, thereby keeping our base of top athletes coming back for next year's trials. Of the 14 skaters and 2 goalies, one athlete each is coming from New York, Colorado and Rhode Island. Three athletes are from Arizona, the 8 others are Californians, so their travel costs are minimal. One goalie's home is in Oregon, but she spends much time in California Men s Selection Committee (Senior and Junior) Administrative only: Keith Noll Office staff: Peggy Young & Brent Benson Ken Murchison- Men s Head Coach Chuck Thuss- Men s Assistant Coach Mark Vittese - USARS Board Member Don Molnar- USARS & AAU Junior Olympics National Tournament Director Athlete: Rob Laurie, former men s world championship goalie consulted with Chuck Thuss for goalies selection from 11 applicants at trials. Shane Arsenault - Junior Men's Coach assisted with overall team selection. About the quality of this year's talent pool, evaluator Mark Vittese made the following remarks: a) The men applicants consisted of 33 floor players and 11 goalies. This talent level was very high, although many past members of Team USA had issues that kept them from attending these trials, including playing in the European semi-pro leagues, work conflicts, etc. b) The Women players included 24 floor players and 4 goalies. The overall level of talent was somewhat below what had been expected, no skater really stood out or dominated. The best female player at camp was a goalie. c) Junior Men fielded 37 skaters and 8 goalies and was the best level of talent ever assembled at a Junior tryout. d) Junior Women applicants was disappointingly low with 10 skaters and 2 goalies. Seven floor players showed up at camp and three skaters from resume applications were added to make the team. Level of talent was not as high as last year. Keith Noll commented: I am pleased about the performance of our coaches and selection committee in the selection of these USA Teams. They have done an admirable job, in my opinion. Staff member Brent Benson has been very organized and did an outstanding job here. The final goal needs to be WIN MEDALS! GO FOR THE GOLD TEAM USA.

12 2013 USA Roller Sports Roller Derby Forfeiture and Disqualification Policy INTRODUCTION USA Roller Sports understands that, in some cases, specific circumstances might prevent a team from being present at a game or might unfortunately- motivate teams to play a game in a manner that is unsafe or not within the spirit of the sport. This policy establishes a clear differentiation between the cases that will lead to the declaration of a forfeit and those that will be considered to go against acceptable conduct or sportsmanship behavior. This policy also establishes specific consequences that will help guide players, officials and coaches when these situations arise. This policy applies to all USARS Regional Qualifiers and National Championships. ENFORCEMENT Only authorized individuals will be allowed to officially enforce this policy. The Tournament Head Referee will be authorized to enforce this policy for any games scheduled to be played during the tournament. In addition, the designated Head Referee for each game will be authorized to enforce this policy for that game. USA Roller Sports staff will reserve the authority to enforce this policy or designate additional individuals to enforce this policy during USARS Regional Qualifiers and National Championships. TOURNAMENT PARTICIPATION If a team plays in a USARS Regional Qualifier and qualifies for the USARS National Championship, but then fails to participate, for any reason, in the USARS National Championship, they will automatically forfeit their prize money. If a team does not submit a valid application to participate in the USARS National Championship after qualifying at a USARS Regional Qualifier, then they forfeit their participation. USARS will then invite other teams who participated in the USARS Regional Qualifier, in the order they placed, to apply as a replacement for the forfeiting team.

13 FORFEITS Intentional Forfeit If a team elects to not play during a scheduled game, the team captain must submit a signed Forfeit Agreement at least two (2) hours before the scheduled time of a game. Failure to Start Forfeit If a team has not intentionally forfeited and the team does not have the minimum number of players (according to the current USARS Rule Book) able to play at the time of the equipment check for their scheduled competition, the game must be declared a forfeit. USARS reserves the right to declare a forfeit intentional if a team failed to start a game but was considered able to do so or if a team intentionally failed to start the game. Failure to Continue Forfeit If a team successfully starts a game but during the course of the game is unable to maintain the minimum number of players (according to the current USARS Rule Book) present and able to play due to injuries, expulsions, foul outs or any other situation, the game must be declared a forfeit. Additionally, if a team is considered unfit to continue playing a game in a manner that is safe for them and the other team, the game may be declared a forfeit at the discretion of the game Head Referee or any other authorized individual, as described in this document. CONSEQUENCES FOR A FORFEIT Elimination A team that receives a forfeit is not eliminated from the tournament and may continue to play in any subsequent scheduled games, unless the forfeit is intentional or is declared intentional. A team that forfeits twice during a tournament or that records an intentional forfeit from a single game is automatically eliminated from the tournament and will not be allowed to participate in subsequent scheduled games. Placement If a team is eliminated from the tournament, their placement will be assigned and will be lower than any other team that was not eliminated from the tournament. However, the team will automatically forfeit any prize award associated to their placement, if any. If a team is eliminated during a USARS Regional Qualifier, they will not be eligible to compete at the USARS National Championship.

14 Scores For scoring purposes, a forfeited game will be called as follows: If one team intentionally forfeits, the other team will be promptly notified and a 5-0 victory will be called in favor of the team who did not forfeit. If one team fails to start a game and the other team is present and able to play, a 5-0 victory will be called in favor of the team who is present. If one team fails to continue playing during a game, the other team will be declared the winner. The score will stand as is if the forfeiting team had the lowest score at the time. If the forfeiting team had the highest score at the time, their score will be maintained but the winning team s score will be increased to the forfeiting team s score plus one (1) point. If both teams forfeit, the game will be called 0-0. DISQUALIFICATIONS If a team is engaging in any type of collective misconduct or unsportsmanlike behavior according to the criteria of the Tournament Head Referee or an authorized individual as described in this document, the team may be disqualified from the competition. If a disqualification is called against a team, the ongoing game will be terminated immediately. A disqualification will not be considered a forfeit and will be subject to its own set of consequences. CONSEQUENCES FOR A DISQUALIFICATION Elimination A team that is disqualified is automatically eliminated from the tournament and will not be allowed to participate in subsequent scheduled games.

20 USARS Grant Proposal to US Foundation for Amateur Roller Skating Junior World Team Participation in Organized Training Outside USA Goal: Many Athletes who have participated at Junior World Championships have identified that having additional training outside the USA would provide them with exposure to different techniques, equipment and instruction. This training might help the athlete to improve their performance and potentially improve their outcome at future world championships. Details: USARS would like to seek annual funding from the US Foundation for Amateur Roller Skating to assist previous Junior World Team athletes to with expenses associated for the training at an organized training camp in another country outside USA. Assistance would be limited to two skaters based upon the number of applicants. It is anticipated that funding per athlete would be limited to $2000 per athlete and USARS would seek confirmation from the athlete and their guardian that with the assistance that they have adequate resources to attend the training program. Because of the age of the athletes there may be a need for one adult to accompany the athletes to the training program and the expenses for this will be supplemented by USARS. It is expected that the maximum number of athletes to be assisted would be 2 per discipline with a priority system of ranking based upon the following in order of importance: 1 Previous World Team Participation 2 Highest placements at the World Championships 3 Ability to compete in Junior World Class events during current skating season 4 Verification of need 5 Verification of guardian approval and ability to supplement additional expense 6 Statement of support by persons within their discipline of their commitment to training for future World competitions A committee of USA Roller Sports that would minimally include the Executive Director, the discipline director, and one coach (board member) will rank the applicants in order of preference. This grant proposal and committee structure should be approved by the governing body and then submitted to the US Foundation for their input and approval. A notice would be placed on web site and in athlete s packets at the National Championships. Applications submitted by Jan1 to decide prior to training opportunities for the upcoming season. Amount requested Respectfully submitted by: Not to exceed $6,000 (2 athletes & 1 coach) Richard Hawkins, Executive Director USARS George Kolibaba, President of USARS Richard Hawkins Executive Director USARS 4730 South Street Lincoln, NE 68506

21 ADDENDUM G Proposal for Hosting a Seminar in USA with an International Coach Purpose: Goal: To continue the development of artistic skaters and techniques to improve USA performance in international competition. USARS would sponsor a seminar in one location utilizing an international coach who would provide instruction to those attending. Suggested attendees: Coaches Athletes - ages Elementary through Senior WC Judges Content: Focus of the seminar should be limited to one or two disciplines Original Dance and Free Dance for solo and team & choreography Choose one Figures Free Skating & Choreography This would include group instruction in a skating facility and theory in classroom or seated setting. It is expected that this seminar would include written materials and video materials that would be included in the pricing of the event. Length of event: Timing of event: Budget: Pricing: One day for 8 hours or potentially two day event with instructor providing private instruction to potential athletes and coaches in non class hours. USARS would determine if the cost of instruction was the property of the invited coach or USARS. The event should be considered to coincide with a recognized larger competition. Ideal would be Pan Am Club Championships and/or Odenton contest to minimize the expense for many athletes. These contests are held in the beginning of the calendar year. $2000 air fare from Europe $100/night for instructor Unknown amount for rental of facility for seminar instruction Use of meeting room at hotel utilized by the contest contestants/officials $1000 honorarium for preparation of materials and DVDs for demonstration and instruction $50 day per diem for meals If afternoon meal is included offer catering to the operator or plan on Buffet of sandwiches and chips to be served at rink facility. (Subway) $4 per attendee. $400 $1000 Printing and duplication of DVD Total of $5,000 Would include instructional materials and copy of video to all attending Would include all group instruction at skating facility Would include lunch meal $50-$100 per attendee. Goal 100 attendees to cover expenses Developmental costs covered by USARS USARS could consider this as a developmental project every year or every other year to enhance the skills of artistic athletes and coaches within the USA. It would require a considerable amount of advertising and advance. If this were approved arrangement would need to be coordinated with the contest being paired with event and the operator who hosts the contest re: availability of facility and room rates at host hotels. Additionally, the organization committee for

22 the contest would need to be contacted to determine the estimated time for the contest to ensure no conflict with their events. To ensure maximum exposure this event should be finalized prior to the National Championships to be able to advertise the event in the program that is produced by USARS and has minimal cost of adding one page to program. This would be considered an event that would benefit at least one half of USARS art skaters as a benefit that their region or individual club would not be able to manage. Consideration might be given to also hosting an official s seminar at similar time once the event became established and would potentially encourage judges and officials to attend for meeting their continuing education requirements. Immediate involvement of the regional representatives is imperative to the success of the program. Their input and advice should be considered to ensure that the needs of coaches in the field are considered in the structure of the event. Suggested instructors could be Original Dance/Free Dance Figures Free Skating Hugo Chapputo speaks English Renatta Heinz or check with Petra Gabriella Compulsory dance is not considered due to this is an area that USA has higher level of competence than Europe or other continents. If the governing body chooses to do more than one seminar instructor the expenses increase exponentially and will make it difficult to cover expenses or make a profit. USARS may wish to seek funding from US Foundation but with gaining 18,000 for junior skaters for this season that may be a difficult reach. We will create a grant request should it chose to make that application Grant Application for a USA seminar from an International Coach Purpose: Goal: Rationale: USARS is seeking developmental grant to create an annual seminar for artistic skating. The funding sought would be to assist with initial expenses and reduce the risk to USARS in the first year of operation. If the event is successful, the developmental funds will be returned to the US Foundation for Amateur Roller Skating A seminar would be held for 1 2 days following a known contest that is well attended. (Pan Am Club Championships or Odenton). An international coach would do an 8 hour seminar to include classroom instruction, video, in rink group instruction and evaluation. It is perceived that USA is not performing as well as it might in international competition due to inferior technique or knowledge. USARS would manage a seminar to provide an opportunity to Elementary through WC skaters and their coaches to gain knowledge and exposure to additional technique. Paring the event with an existing contest would allow athletes to save on travel that they might have considered or spent for the contest. This would be a developmental program where a different discipline would be the area of focus annually. Original Dance/Free Dance & Choreography Figures Free Style and Choreography Pricing USARS would like to keep the cost of the seminar at a low level that is affordable to the athlete and coach. ($50-$100). The estimated expenses for all expense including rental of rink and lunch meal are approximately including $1000 honorarium for instructor to develop teaching tools and the teaching time.

23 Request USARS believes that this program will assist in improving the skills of its current artistic athletes and their coaches. It believes that the operating costs can be managed within the pricing and expected income. However, in the first year of operation there may be challenges not anticipated and USARS is seeking a conditional grant to assist for $2000. Should the operation of the seminar recover enough income to cover its own expenses, then USARS with return the developmental funding. USARS believes that the request is consistent with the mission and goals of the US Foundation for Amateur Roller Skating to help develop the sport of Roller Skating both within the America s as well as Worldwide. Something New A seminar by from Europe with instruction on skating The seminar will be held following the contest and will be Dates Here is your chance to be exposed to a different perspective and learn new skills Plan on attending and make your reservation early.

MOTION: To allow teams to substitute or add up to a maximum of 3 individuals that were not on the Regional roster. Any individuals being added must have successfully obtained their USARS membership under the club before September 1, PASSED UNANIMOUSLY ITEM #3: Discussion of rule RD The way it currently reads, there is to be a thirty second break between jams; however, the original intention was to allow up to 30 seconds. As we are in the midst of the Regional events, no rule changes can be made, but rather addressed at each event with all teams. ITEM #4: The structure for Nationals was discussed. No final decision can be made on this until we have confirmed the total number of teams that will be attending. In the event that all 12 teams accept their invite then the consensus is for pool play (4 groups) and then an 8 team playoff bracket (tab 2 of the 2012 National Event Structures excel file). The times listed as breaks should be used efficiently (men or junior showcases or other expo). ITEM #5: The logo/graphics for Nationals were reviewed. Out of the horizontal options, the top left seemed to be the favorite. All committee members liked the idea of using the Moving Forward as the tagline/theme. Danielle is to seek approval from the USARS Executive Director with the selected images. ITEM #6: Fernando suggested looking into the possibility of naming the Nationals trophy/prize the Seltzer Cup in honor of Leo Seltzer, inventor of Roller Derby. After the presentation of the award at Nationals each year, it would be displayed at the National Museum of Roller Skating and the Championship team would be presented with a plaque that would be theirs to take home. The committee directed John to talk to Jerry Seltzer, son of Leo Seltzer, for approval.

26 ITEM #7: In regards to Derby Nationals, the following event organization topics were discussed briefly: venue layout, track layout (meeting rooms, vendor space, etc.), ticket prices, and expo/showcase possibilities. Suggested ticket prices were $20/day and $50 for the whole event. Danielle was directed to check on the fees through Ticketmaster and also discuss these prices with the USARS Executive Director. ITEM #8: Updates for the hosting application for 2013 were discussed. Fernando was directed to make the changes to the form within a week s time. MOTION: To approve setting the deadline for hosting applications as January 1, PASSED UNANIMOUSLY ITEM #9: The rules clarifications document needs to be better organized (better flow).

27 MINUTES USA Roller Sports Roller Derby Committee Telephone Conference Meeting October 3, :15PM Meeting was called to order at 7:19 PM CST on October 3, Attending were: Sabra (Stormy) Bunger, John McNeel, Fernando Reguiero and Danielle Fairbanks, USARS Roller Derby Director. ITEM #1: The first item on the agenda was to go through and discuss the question list (previously sent to all committee members) pertaining to Nationals that was sent over by NOtown Roller Derby. The following additional items were discussed: 1. Advertising a. NOtown can advertise their involvement with Nationals as the host league b. Fernando is working on a package for NOtown to use for PR purposes c. Specific website for Nationals- Fernando already working on this 2. Volunteer Coordination a. Ball park figure: volunteers will be needed b. Suggestion for compensating officials : base it on the number of hours worked (tiered levels) OR number of shifts worked and then get free entry for the next day c. Positions: announcer coordinator; PR head; media/press liaison; team wranglers; track maintenance 3. Ticketing a. Ticketmaster vs. Brown Paper Tickets 4. Press & Photographers a. Submission form b.

28 ITEM #2: John suggested that a forfeit policy be put into place as soon as possible. The committee directed John to send over his recommendations on such and this will be discussed on the next call. ITEM #3: A report from John confirmed that Jerry Seltzer loved the idea of calling the National award the Seltzer Cup. Fernando will finalize a couple of design options for it and Danielle will move forward with securing written authorization for using that name. ITEM #4: The concept of runaway derby was brought up as some of the feedback that has been received regarding the rule set is that it can become a possibility. This is something that will have to be closely monitored as we do not want to take the derby out of derby and turn those teams which are as developed away from playing the USARS rule set. Separate divisions based on skill level for future years may help prevent this as teams would be more evenly matched. ITEM #5: The final item that was discussed was scheduling for upcoming derby events. Based on what we have seen at the Regional events, it would be best to avoid a schedule where a team may have to play three games in one day. Due to the nature of the fast-paced pack and game, most teams do not have the endurance to compete at that level for more than 1 or 2 games/day. The meeting was adjourned at approximately 9:06PM.

A team s withdrawal from a game was thoroughly discussed and it was determined that withdrawal from a scheduled game results in no official placement for that team in said event. Danielle was directed to add stipulations to the policy and present a formal, written policy to the committee. ITEM #3: Fernando reported on the quotes that he received from a few different awards providers for the cup. Due to the high quotes, it was suggested that Danielle check with the USARS Executive Director to discuss the options and also speak to the local provider to see if they can provide anything similar. ITEM #4: Derby Nationals was the next item on the agenda. Danielle reminded the committee that the deadline for teams is November 2 nd so we should be able to finalize the schedule after that. Fernando informed the committee that the logos have been sent to NOtown and that he is continuing work on the website for Nationals. Danielle was directed to contact the Regional hosts to try and get some action photos for use on the website. It was suggested that after the officials deadline (October 31 st ) a couple of highly qualified individuals will be selected to work with John and Sabra to sort through all the applicants and make recommendations for the Nationals officials staff.

52 AGENDA/MEETING MINUTES Speed Discipline Committee Thursday March 14 8 pm Eastern time Conference Call ITEM 1. Discussion: Allen Hughes and Sherri Bowles proposal Committee discussed the proposal and determined they needed to have further discussion with Alan Hughes and Sherri Bowles for clarification on the Rolling Referee issue. Suggest that the referee committee develop a form to keep track of lapped skaters. Suggest the each region determine if the helmet covers should have numbers. National already uses covers with numbers. Data/data source: Proposal Attached Action: Deferred for further discussion with committees or regions. ITEM 2. Residency requirement for World Team 2013 Discussion: Move the residency up one week earlier at the World Championships starting on Aug. 8 through Aug. 23 and eliminate the Colorado residency and moving residency to the World Championship site. Motion made by Buggy Allmond to extend the arrival date to the World Championship to begin on Aug. 8, Second by Sara Sayasane Approved unanimously Data/data source: Richard Hawkins / Ed Mueller Action: Move the arrival dates for Worlds to Aug. 8. ITEM 3. World Team Selection Process Suggestions (Sara) Discussion: Open discussion on the selection process and the number of skaters selected for the World Championships. Committee felt that a reduction would hurt the overall team success due to possible injuries and other related issues. Further discussions included the ability to have a funded National Team Coach for development of US Coaches and athletes at an Elite level. It was suggested that a committee work on a funding model to hire such a person at no cost to the organization. Data/data source: Documents Attached Action: Sara and Joe Hanna volunteered to work on a funding model for National Team Coach through the use of scheduled National seminars and camps. ITEM 4. World Team Management Team Selection (Coach and managers)

53 Discussion: A review of the applications for the World Team Management positions were discussed and evaluated the potential team positions. Positions needed are (1) World Team Coach (2) Team Manager (3) Assistant Team Manager (4) World Games Coach and possibly a (5) Apprentice manager. After further discussions on the pros and cons of each candidate the following selections were made by the voting committee members present: Word Games Coach - James Ingram III World Team Coach Vicci King World Team Manager Joe LeGault Asst. World Team Manager Joe Hanna Richard Hawkins and Ricci Porter will solicit suggestions and request for an Apprentice Manager for the World Championships to be presented to the Committee for a later approval if needed. Data/data source: Documents Attached Action: ITEM 4. Discussion: Present the approved World Team Management selection to the Board of Directors for approval. Approved unanimously New Business Buggy Allmond brought up an issue that happened at last year s Indoor Championships in relationship to the broken skater rule and a skater being disqualified from a final event and loss of points related to the disqualification. In the case presented the skater was not allowed to continue even though there was no danger to other skaters. In the opinion of the committee members the issue was an oversight by the referees not understanding the effect of the new points structure on the overall outcome of the event. Data/data source: Buggy Allmond Action: Committee suggested to Jim Pitch that the referee s committee have a discussion in regards to allowing skaters to finish laps in a final event no matter the length required due to the importance of each position in the final. Jim suggested this also be brought up at the Coaches meeting prior to the start of the championships so everyone is aware of the importance of each and every position in the events finals. No rule change seems to be necessary. Attendance: Joe Hanna, Sara Sayasane, Chris Payne, Shawn Pattison Buggy Allmond Richard Hawkins Ricci Porter Ed Mueller Jim Pitch (for Mike Bell) Submitted by:

54 USA ROLLER SPORTS Figure Sport Committee Wednesday, November 7, 2012 F-5 (a) The meeting was called to order approximately at 7 pm CST. Members present were Jim Pollard, David Adamy, Tony Berger, Aubrey Orcutt, Jessica Gaudy, Ed Harney, Bill Spooner and Jane Wojnarowsky. John Cawly was absent. The subject of the conference call was to discuss the RSA Achievement test proposed requirement updates from Pat Jacques. The Figure Sport Committee members have requested to ask the RSA to remove the proposed RSA Achievement test requirements from their website until the USARS/RSA Joint Committee members have their meeting. At this time, having the proposed test requirements on the RSA website is confusing to the test candidate. The Figure Sport Committee members discussed the history of the required RSA tests to be taken by USARS C and B skaters before entering any qualifying championship of the skating year. The FSC members had a few business questions for Pat and Tina: 1. Will the RSA include a section on their website for the USARS Meet Director s as well as any Roller Sports member, to view and verify what test candidates successfully passed their achievement tests? This would be similar to USARS membership listing that is available on USARS website. It is important to have accessible for both organizations and to validate those who have taken the time to work on their achievement tests. It also is imperative for the Regional Meet Directors to enforce the required tests for the C and B skaters. 2. Does the RSA have an accurate report of all names of the test candidates who have successfully passed their 1-2 & 3 discipline tests since the required testing of the USARS C and B skaters had been issued by the two organizations from to share with USA Roller Sports? We believe this to have been started in the 2009 skating season. 3. The FSC agrees the RSA Achievement tests are a great teaching tool to prepare and improve skill levels of the skaters. The proposed Loop Achievement test requirements are agreed by the FSC members to be 100% in a better lay out than the current RSA Loop tests structure. 4. The FSC will work on the Solo and Team Dance requirements for the next two weeks to determine if it better to have optional dances for each test, or to work a separate path for the Adult skaters. The FSC members were in agreement the Adult path will not take the candidate to the Gold Medal level however at the conclusion of the Adult path they may continue to take their tests up to the Gold Medal if they wish from the other column. The FSC feels this will promote the achievement dance tests by having a separate Adult path and will better serve our customers. 5. If the requirements are altered in the test structure, the RSA Test Judge s Commission Tests will also need to be altered. I discussed this with Shirley Engle at the weekend USARS board meeting as Shirley grades all of the RSA judge s commission tests. Are we moving too quickly to keep up with the availability to have enough commissioned RSA judges in the field? Is it time to consider have ONE direction for the members in the field to commission themselves as Judges and Referees? The meeting adjourned approximately at 8 pm CST.

55 USA ROLLER SPORTS Figure Sport Committee Wednesday, November 28, 2012 F-5 (b) The meeting was called to order at approximately 8:00 pm on Wednesday, November 28, Members present were John Cawly, David Adamy, Tony Berger, Jessica Gaudy, Bill Spooner, Ed Harney and Jane Wojnarowsky. Jim Pollard and Aubrey Orcutt were absent. Danny Brown was a guest on the call. The topic of the conference call was to discuss the proposed RSA Achievement Test requirements as submitted by Pat Jacques to the FSC. The proposed Loop Achievement tests were approved by the FSC in a previous conference call. There were no updates to the International Dance tests requirements. The proposed Free Skating requirements and proposed American Dance for Solo and Team requirements were the task given to the committee members to review with suggestions. FREE SKATING: Aubrey Orcutt s below stating her observations and suggestions for the Free Skating Achievement test for gradual and consistent skill level training for the athletes. Hello Jane, I just finished going through the freestyle tests and had a few questions/comments. First, I wanted to be able to compare the required tests to the required content for standard competition and what I found online in the Figure Skating Rulebook dated 01/20/12 only stated "No maximum requirements" for all A events. Should I be looking at something else? If so, can you direct me to the correct docs or send them to me? As far as the tests go, I reviewed the proposed changes and like most of them, but have the following questions/comments: Test 3: Test 4: 1. I don't understand giving the choice of a full lutz when we have not asked the skater to attempt a salchow or full flip yet. What is the reasoning for this? 2. I think this is an appropriate level to test the salchow. In my experience and observation, skaters usually get the single mapes, toewally, and salchow fairly close together. The single flip, lutz, and loop come a little later in development. 3. What is the reasoning behind the sit spin at this level? I have not seen many skaters who are working on their half jumps, just starting to learn full jumps, who have the leg strength to complete a true sit for three revolutions. 1. I think this is one test early to require a single loop when it is the first time a skater is required to complete a salchow or flip. The loop is the most difficult jump to learn because of the leg development it takes to complete without an assisted entrance and I think the salchow, flip, and lutz should come first. 2. I think this is an appropriate level to test the lutz continuing the progression from the 1/2 lutz in the test before. I am assuming that it is not included because of the outer back take off, however, a skater who has started the proper 1/2 lutz should be able to continue development to the full lutz for this test.

56 Test 5: Test 8: 1. I think skaters should have a choice of a flip combination, maybe instead of the loop combination. 1. I don't agree with requiring a colledge. Jumps like the colledge and boeckl are rarely seen in standard competition anymore and are never seen at the World Championships. I think it would be fine to offer this as a jump option but don't think it is appropriate to require a skater to learn a jump that they may only be completing for the sake of this one test and that does not closely relate to any other item that will be required of them. I know these jumps show a level of skill and control but, unfortunately, they have fallen out of the competitive seen. 2. I don't understand having a single flip in the loop-euler-flip combination. We require skaters to complete a 1.5 flip in the combination in the test before, why not the same now? It seems to be taking a step back. 3. Why do we not ask skaters for a class A spin here? They have been working different camels since test 5 and putting them in combination spins. I think this would be a good test for the broken ankel or lay over. Now looking at the proposed test requirements (These judgements are based off of what is stated in the rulebook under AR If I should be looking at something else to get a better understanding, please let me know): 1. Primary does not have any content requirements so I don't understand having a test requirement. If anything, I could see maybe test Fresh/Soph C has the same requirements as Juv/Elem C so I don't understand requiring a test higher. I think this should be test 2, same as Juv/Elem C. 3. Novice could go to test 3 as far as I can tell. From the way the rulebook reads, a skater must be able to complete at least single rotation jumps to compete. As I said earlier, the rulebook reads "No maximum requirements" under all the A events listed under AR If that is really the case, I don't understand having a test requirement since the ability of the skater is of no consequence, however, I don't disagree with the test levels except for Juvenile A which I think could be test 4. Let me know if you have any input or feedback for me. I'm really concerned that I am looking in the wrong place for content requirements, so let me know about that. Thank you, Aubrey The committee discussed to stop static requirements and give options to the test candidate. Choice is important for skill level growth. AMERICAN DANCE: During the Wednesday, November 7, 2012 conference call discussion on the dance requirements oscillated between if Optional Dances should be included in the test requirements and/or if a path for the Adults to take dance tests for their skill level should be established. If two paths were established, the organizations would be servicing more skaters of multiple levels of skill and age. The FSC members were given the task to submit a

57 listing of suggested dance requirements for the athletes. Bill Spooner, Tony Berger and Jane Wojnarowsky submitted suggestions. Addendum A: A compilation of the suggested listing of dance requirements from Bill, Tony and Jane taking two separate paths. Before moving further with discussion on actual requirements in each test, the FSC felt the next step is to present our committee s suggestions to the USARS/RSA Joint Committee for feasibility to carry out the concepts. Can we still use the existing tests medals in stock, should there be a separate reward for the Adult or Recreational path, costs, etc.? Understanding and believing in the Achievement tests to be a route to progress the skaters to raise the skill level and improve their quality of skating, the FSC has concerns beyond the five questions in our 11/7/12 minutes. How will the RSA keep reliable documentation and verification of the progress of each candidate? Many candidates skip tests moving to a higher level test. There needs to be accountability for the customers. The next step is to request a meeting of the Joint Committee to discuss the suggestions in the Free Skating and American dance test requirements. Meeting adjourned approximately at 8:05pm.

58 USA ROLLER SPORTS Figure Sport Committee Wednesday, March 13, 2013 F-5 (c) The meeting was called to order approximately at 7pm CDT on Wednesday, March 13, Members present were Jim Pollard, John Cawly, David Adamy, Tony Berger, Ed Harney, Jessica Gaudy, Bill Spooner and Jane Wojnarowsky. Aubrey Orcutt was absent. First item on the agenda was discussion of the RSA tests. Recommendation to USARS Board of Directors Motion 1: The Figure Sport Committee wishes to recommend that USARS eliminate the RSA testing requirements for the USARS B and C division events for USARS qualifying and national competitions. The following are the reasons and rationale. 1) Contractually RSA and USARS agreed to operate a testing program that would share revenues. The contract indicates that any changes would be agreed upon with a joint committee. RSA implementation of a change in the program and the test structure without the approval of USARS in effect did not meet the terms of the contract. 2) The testing program has been modified to allow bronze level testing to be accomplished with one judge and that judge can be from the host club. Testing of judging qualifications is separate from those of USARS and thus a judge of RSA could potentially not have USARS credentials. Ultimately a judge who is not associated with USARS could be determining the qualification of an athlete to compete in a USARS program. 3) RSA does have a judges testing program that has existed for many years for qualification but has no standard process to ensure an outcome within one area of the USA utilizes the same standard as another. So, there exists the possibility of inconsistent standards for passing a test and therefore qualifying for an event with requirements for a minimal level of RSA testing. 4) The current testing program contributes minimally to the income of USARS and this income does not appreciable justify the potential risk of legal challenge potentially from an athlete or their guardian. 5) RSA or USARS do not have a database that allows for verifying the passage of the testing requirements. Denial of the ability to compete in a USARS qualifying event based upon a database that is not accurate does not enhance the continuation of the existing program. 6) The joint committee made suggestions about modification to testing of judges and a blanket qualification based upon USARS standards that included a USARS A commissioned judge being equal to qualification to judge at level 4. A USARS B commissioned judge able to judge level 3

59 and a USARS C commissioned judge being able to judge level 1 and 2. This suggestion was rejected. 7) The testing program of RSA does not mimic or align with the USARS competitive program to teach developmental skills for the competitive structure. Discussion of modifying this structure was rejected by RSA representative as not timely for a timeline that RSA has set for launch. We (the FSC) believe that the above noted inconsistencies do not enhance the continuation of the requirements. Should the RSA and USARS wish to continue a joint effort then further study and development should take place and have approval of a Joint Committee. At that time the USARS Board of Directors could establish requirements. ROLL CALL VOTE: Pollard- Yes Cawly-Yes Adamy- Yes Harney- Yes Berger- Yes Spooner-Yes Gaudy- Abstain Wojnarowsky- Yes Orcutt- Absent MOTION 1: PASSED Second item on the agenda was discussion on the 2013 CIPA Rule Book changes for Falls, Spins and Toe- Loop (Mapes). The CIPA Rule numbers are: ; ; ; ADDENDUM 1 Discussion on the 2013 CIPA added rules was FYI for the committee members. Bill Spooner will be attending a CEPA seminar later this month and wanted feedback from the committee. As a federation, we are not sure when these changes were voted on to be added into the 2013 CIPA book. As a federation want our voice heard that many other free skating elements should also be addressed by CIPA for deduction when not performed as described in the CIPA manual; i.e.; Salchow and Loop jumps as well as proper edge take-off for Flip and Lutz. We are curious what CIPA s definition of pumping is as a Traveling Camel is a form of a pump. For CIPA to adopt deductions to an unknown is questionable. Third item on the agenda was on the repetitions to be skated for the USARS International Youth Solo Dance division event competitions. The repetitions performed at the Pan American Championship of Figure Clubs followed South American rules. All repetitions listed for the above two dances in USARS references is currently correct for USARS sanctioned events. Fourth item on the agenda was on USARS Figure Rules AR (d) & (e), and AR (e). Request from the field: To allow former Junior WC and WC national placement winners to be able to return to the sport in Adult division events after a period of years yet TBD. The committee agreed this subject should be sent to the Regional Coaches representatives for input from the regions. Fifth item on the agenda was on the USARS Public Practice Schedule in the adjacent arena to the National Championships in Albuquerque, NM as FYI. The public practice times will be released upon the USARS Executive Director s decision. Public practice time schedules will be available at the national championship registration booth. Sixth item on the agenda was the correction of the Juvenile A figures to be listed in ascending numerical order. This has been corrected for the May 1 st, 2013 draw of the Figure and Dance Requirements for the 2013 Regional and National Championships and will be sent to the National Championship tabulator for regional distribution.

60 Seventh item on the agenda was discussion of applications received in the national office for 2013 World Team Staff. Motion 2: Nominating Doug Eley as the 2013 Junior and Senior World Team Manager. 6- YES 1- ABSTAIN 1-ABSENT PASSED Motion 3: Nominating Gloria Manning as the 2013 Junior World Team Coach. PASSED UNAMIMOUSLY Motion 4: Nominating Jane Wojnarowsky as the 2013 Senior World Team Coach 6-YES 1-ABSTAIN 1-ABSENT PASSED Eighth item on the agenda was an update from the Judges Committee Chairman, John Cawly on the enforcement of the USARS Officials Code of Conduct regarding texting while on the stage. Ed Harney will also enforce the Officials Code of Conduct with the National stage staff. It is encouraged that ALL 2013 REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS abide with the document. The meeting adjourned approximately at 9:00pm CDT. ADDENDUM 1: SR 3.06 Interruption of Skating The following actions shall be taken should a contestant or team encounter an interruption of skating as outlined below Illness or Injury: The contestant must be able to skate his or her entire performance within a ten (10) minute recuperation period. Otherwise, a mark of point zero (.0) will be assigned by the judges. Judging shall commence at the point of interruption during the reskate Mechanical Failure: If the referee finds that the interruption is justified, he or she shall allow the contestant to make the necessary repairs within an acceptable amount of time, then reskate the entire program, with the judges scoring from the point of interruption Costume Failure: If a costume failure becomes hazardous, indecent, or embarrassing, the referee should stop the contestant and order a total reskate of the program, with judging to commence at the point of interruption Outside Interference: The contestant/s must reskate the entire program without penalty. Judging will commence at the point of interruption Music Failure: In pairs skating, free skating and dance skating, music failure shall be considered as outside interference. The referee must stop the contestant or team in any case of music failure Official Error: If the referee inadvertently stops the contestant or team before their performance has been completed, it shall be considered as outside interference Unreasonable Stoppage: If a contestant or team interrupts their performance for any unjustified reason, a mark of point zero (.0) shall be assigned by the judges. In this case, a contestant shall receive no placement in the event. The referee shall determine whether or not the failure falls under the above-mentioned interruption of skating rules.

61 Reskate: The judges shall not observe the contestant during the reskate until the point of interruption is reached. The referee shall signal when the contestant has reached this point by sounding a whistle. In a free skating event, the referee and assistant referee shall observe the contestant to ensure that he or she performs the movements of the program. If the referee feels that the contestant is unduly changing the program, or skating it so as to be rested for the remaining portion, a mark of point zero (.0) shall be assigned by the judges Order of Skating: In case of interruption, the order of skating for the event may be adjusted if necessary, under the following rules: In figure skating and compulsory dance events, the next figure or dance will not be started until the affected contestant or team has completed the figure or dance during which the interruption occurred In a free skating final program, no contestant shall skate in a different group from the one into which he or she was originally assigned. SR 3.07 Fall A fall leading to the penalty is when more than 50% of the body weight is supported by any part of the body except the skate/s, will be penalized by 0.2, on each and every occasion. For pairs the fall of both partners at the same time will receive a penalty of.3. This amount will be deducted from the B mark. SR 3.08 Competitive Warm-Up Competitive warm-up shall be considered part of the event. As such, all interruption of skating rules shall apply In figure skating, the first four (4) contestants will begin their competition warm-up two minutes (2:00) before the start of the event. CIPA RULE BOOK

62 General: The single elements listed may also be skated in the combination jumps or spins. No additional elements may be skated. The six listed elements must not be repeated. If it is clear that the intention is to perform an element (jumps and/or spins) it will be considered an attempt. No additional elements may be skated. Each additional element attempted will carry a penalty of.5 from the B mark with no credit given to the A mark. Not performing the elements in the order outlined in FR will carry a penalty of.5 from the B mark. An element not attempted will carry a penalty of.5. The penalty will be taken from the A mark. Any Class A spin with more than one position will be given a deduction of 0.5 from the A mark. Any spin combination with more than three positions will be given a deduction of 0.5 from the A mark. Any jumps combination of more than five (5) jumps will be given a deduction of 0.5 from the A mark. All spins performed with additional hitching (entrance, change of positions or change of foot) of the employed foot ( pumping ) will be considered a poor quality spin, and therefore any spins performed in this way will be penalised 0.3 in the A mark, for each executed spin. A BAD execution of a Mapes if presented as Toe Assisted Jump, will get the minimum value of 0.6. Please refer to FR Falls - Please refer to SR FR 6.03 Free Skating Long Program LONG PROGRAM SET ELEMENTS: In the Free Skating long program the skaters MUST INCLUDE at least two different step sequences either Diagonal, Circular or Serpentine For each step sequence not performed will be given a deduction of 0.5 from the A mark LONG PROGRAMME REQUIREMENTS: A jump of the same kind (type and rotation), with the exception of one revolution jumps or less, c an be performed no more than three (3) times in the whole program. o If the skater performs the same jump (type and rotation) more than three (3) times, a deduction of 0.3 from the A mark will be applied. All the combination jumps MUST be different. o If a skater performs the same combination jumps more than once, a deduction of 0.3 from the A mark will be applied. There MUST be at least two (2) spins, one of which MUST be a combination. o If the skater does not perform a combination spin, a deduction of 0.5 will be applied from the A mark. o If the skater performs less than two (2) spins a deduction of 0.5 will be applied from the A mark. All spins MUST be evenly distributed throughout the program, this means that between two spin elements in the long program there should be at least two other different elements (at least one step sequence and one jump element). A deduction of 0.5 in general will be deducted in the B mark for a program that is not well-balanced Before the draw (the day before the commencement of the championships) and depending upon the size of entry in the event, the CIPA Executive Committee shall determine and announce the number of contestants in each group for the long program The order of skating for the long program groups shall be determined from the results of the short program. CIPA RULE BOOK

63 Each rotation in the air must be complete. In case of under rotation (by more than a quarter) the jump will be considered of lower degree (double instead of triple, single instead of double). An under-rotated single Axel will not receive credit at all. The score inside each class (single, double, triple) will depend on the quality of the jump. To be considered: momentum, height, travel, take-off and landing edges, body position, sureness and control TOE-LOOP (MAPES) The GOOD execution of the element: A Toe Loop (Mapes) performed with a turn of the toe stop of no more than one-quarter of a rotation or less, whilst the employed foot is on the floor and the body position is a maximum of one-quarter turned without opening the left arm/shoulder. This will be given full value and be considered a good execution. The FAIR execution of the element: A Toe Loop(Mapes) performed with a turn of the toe stop of more than one-quarter of a rotation whilst the employed foot is on the floor, and the body position is a maximum of one-quarter turned without opening the left arm/shoulder. This will be given half value of No.1. above. The BAD execution of the element (Open Toe Loop) A Toe Loop(Mapes) performed with a turn of the toe stop of more than one-quarter of a rotation whilst the employed foot is on the floor and the body position is turned more than one-quarter and the left arm/shoulder is open. FR 6.11 Footwork There are three classifications of footwork sequences in freeskating. ADVANCED movements are constructed of steps involving one-foot turns and also include Loops. SECONDARY movements involve step sequences consisting of two-foot turns. PRIMARY movements, the most basic kind of free skating footwork, involve step sequences, which do not involve any kind of turn. FR 6.12 Spins A centered spin is a series of continuous rotations around a stationary axis, which passes through a portion of the body. A spin must be more than one rotation (which would actually be a loop) with the standard definition being three or more rotations in the specified position and edge. The spin must be spotted and spin around its point of origin. The most important factor in the execution of any spin is body control. An analysis of a spin reveals three key components: the entrance, the spin itself, and the exit. These three factors comprise the basis of evaluation for all spins, and each should be given careful consideration when determining a score. There are a variety of methods by which spins may be satisfactorily performed, as well as many methods of entering and exiting the spins. Any procedure, which spots the spin, produces a sufficient number of rotations, and stays within the accepted rules of form, shall be considered a good method. Any method not meeting these requirements should be downgraded in proportion to its shortcomings. FR 6.13 Two Foot Spins Classified There are a variety of spins, which may be accomplished in roller free skating. Among the most basic are the spins executed on both feet. Among them are: Flat Foot Heel and Toe, Toe and Heel Crossed Foot, Crossed Toe, Crossed Heel
