Best Answer

In the United States, usually at a gymnastics gym, where gymnastics classes (and sometimes other physical activities) are taught to children and teenagers, and sometimes adults. A child may be on a gymnastics team at that gym, where they will learn routines and skills on every event (usually) - floor and vault for both men and women, and also balance beam and uneven bars for women, pommel horse, rings, and parallel bars for men. The team participates in meets, when gymnasts will show their routines and receive a score from a panel of judges. It is ideal to compete every event at a meet, including vault, although gymnasts sometimes do not compete every event due to injury or incompetency.

How do you score vault routines?

Well this depends strictly upon each vault. You will first need to obtain your license to judge from USAG. You will then salute the gymnast, signifying that you are ready to watch the vault. You will need to watch for a piked position and an arched position. You will also want to make sure the gymnast jump up when approaching the vault as opposed to reach directly for the vault. Also, the gymnast must stick the landing as well. You will learn about all the decutions to make as you are trained to become a judge.
