FIG publishes Gymnastics Codes of Points for 2022-2024
LAUSANNE (SUI), FIG Office, 12 May 2021
The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) is pleased to announce that the new Codes of Points in Men's and Women's Artistic, Trampoline, Acrobatic and Aerobic Gymnastics, applicable from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2024, have now been released
on the FIG website.
For gymnasts, there is no more eagerly awaited sporting regulation than the new Codes of Points. As the reference document governing each discipline, the Code of Points is instrumental in giving general direction to the sport, through the values granted to the various elements and combinations, as well as the penalties imposed for errors.
Every four years, the Codes in every discipline receive an in-depth review. The aim is not to undertake major changes but to make the modifications or adjustments that may be necessary to properly reflect the evolution of the disciplines and above all, to ensure the safety of the athletes.
The development of the Codes of Points is a long process led by the technical committees of each discipline. This process also involved Gymnastics’ national federations and continental unions that were given several opportunities to give their feedback on draft versions of the Codes and share their own ideas to enhance the rules. The final versions were then approved by the FIG Executive Committee.
The new Codes of Points usually come into force the year following the Olympic Games. Following the one-year postponement of the Tokyo 2020 Games, their publication was delayed to avoid any confusion with the current regulations.
