2009 – 2013 FINA SYNCHRONISED SWIMMING MANUALFOR JUDGES, COACHES & REFEREESSECTION IIIEVALUATING SYNCHRONISATION“Motion in unison with each other and with the music”JUDGING FACTORSExcellent/Near Perfect9.5Good7.5Satisfactory5.5Weak3.5A. In UnisonStrokes/PropulsionAll in unisonstrokes, propulsionkicks, sculls, alltotally matching, preciseMinor deviations, some variations intechnique and speed of motionOccasional significant errors, techniquesvary significantly, lacking in claritySeldom together, noapparent effort to match techniques,disorganizedFiguresAlways precisely matched, all actionschoreographedsynchronizationSome minor errors, not always sharp.Actions vary slightly causing fuzzy timingTiming often blurred. Some errors.Minimal effort to match motion/supportactions.Error major and ongoing,Motion/support actions differ throughout.Transitions Nearly identical, speeds matched precisely Some minor errors, speed variations &deviations in underwater actionMany differences in speed and technique,some major errorsMuch confusion, many major & minor errorsin timingRisk Movements:Stacks, Lifts,Platforms,Throws, FloatsCoordinated, sharp & precise,Minor problems, fuzzy on fast action(thrusts, rockets, throws) initiationModerate to major timing errors May fail toachieve positionsNo attention to matching due to strugglesimply to do skillsUnderwaterPurposeful, choreographed to matchprecisely and performed that waySome lack of clarity with varied techniquesor paths. Surface breaks fuzzy.Little effort to match,Individual surface breaks.No effort to synchronize underwatertechniques or surface breaks.B. With the MusicRhythmSharp and precisely onmusical counts.Generally uses counts well, may slur tofuzzy timing with late responses.Often shows lack of feeling for rhythm butstill shows some fuzzy relation to it.May seem that routine was choreographedto other music.Tempo Variations Sharp & precise timing changes. Occasional lapses, but adapts well tochanged tempos and rhythms.Tends to maintain favored tempo regardlessof music change.No evidence of recognition of any tempovariations.Match to Music:Accents, descents,risk actions, highlightsVaried actions well timed with supportingmusic.Major actions usually timed to music.Generic, unsuitable actions & timing, onlysmall part of special sounds utilized.Lack of skill prevents real connection withmusic.OVERALLSeeming one with the music.Spectacular!Awesome!Very pleasing synchronization. Still looks nice, (especially to parents). Will try to synchronise after they learn theskills.2009 – 2013 FINA Synchronised Swimming Manual for Judges, Coaches & Referees 182

Long,rapid travel. Complex strokecombinations. Close spacing often.Much action needing strong orexplosive force, coordinated support.Much energetic motion. Less travel.Few rest spots. Less complexity.Some actions requiring strong orexplosive force and/or sustainedsupport.Simple strokes sequences with lesssupport. Rest stops. Minimal supportskills needed or demonstrated.

Manycomplex combinations with offangles,level changes & travel.Complex actions, closely spaced.Some sequences demandingstrength & stamina. Some complexcombinations but less underwatertime demand. Little designed travel infigures. Spacing at more comfortabledistances.Few actions requiring any strength orstamina. Shorter, simpler figures, fewcomplex sequences. No use ofactions requiring good coordination.Only short basic figure actions used.No effort at height. Nothing complex.Poor execution devalues difficulty ofactions used.TransitionsIndividual actionGroup actionFoot first, blind lines, multi-crossovers; interacting, cooperativeswimmer actions used. More surfacethan underwater changes. Minimalset up time utilized.Less use of blind, foot first, crossover or cooperative swimmer actions.More underwater changes. More timeallowed for transitionsGenerally simple, direct,uncomplicated transitions, bothindividual and group. Simple surfacetransitions, most underwater. No timepressures.Little transition attention at all. Simplyget there any way possible.PatternsTypeNumberRiskMany difficult, intricate patternsmaintained during complex action orrotating travel.Fewer patterns which are difficult toalign and maintain. Less action withinany difficult patterns. More simpletravel maneuvers.Simple with no complex or difficultaction. Little travel within. Fewerpattern changes.Basic patterns changed infrequently.RiskMovesSkill & Coordinationrequired for action.Memorable momentsPlatforms & ThrowsStacks & LiftsFloatsMany single & group high risk moves.Great height and coordination;difficult to match; blind interactions.Stacks, lifts & throws which requiregreat height for successfulcompletion.Fewer actions requiring great height& coordination. Simpler lift and throwactions. Simpler lift and throwactions.Fairly simple, common risk elementswhere execution such as poor heightor wavering stability may devalue thedifficulty of the action.Little or no risk, except that of thechallenge of some basic actions forthe swimmer skill levels. Highprobability of failure on any complexaction attempted.SynchronizationRiskActions in unisonActions to musicRapid, complex actions used often.Complex sequences, peel-offs, etc.Complex rhythm use.Less complexity to simpler rhythms.Simpler actions in Peel-offs andcadence sequences.Simple music rhythms and temposfor easy synchronization of morebasic skills.Not keeping up with the most simpletempos used for basic actions.Placement of Difficulty Frequent throughout. More in early part of routine than late Occasional only. Non-existent.OVERALL Incredible! Very pleasing. Nice with some promise. May be painful to watch.2009 – 2013 FINA Synchronised Swimming Manual for Judges, Coaches & Referees 183
