IS THIS LEGAL? - CHEER

IF YOU HAVE RULE QUESTIONS FOR ALL STAR CHEER -PLEASE EMAIL THE CHEER RULES SERVICE – cheer.rules@IASFworlds.com

If you have a question as to whether a cheer skill is legal or not, you may submit a video to cheer.rules@IASFworlds.com for IASF Safety Officials to determine legality. 

The IASF Legality team will have a global responsibility for all legality cheer rulings, so we ask our Australian community to contact them on  cheer.rules@IASFworlds.com  for any legality clarifications.

IF YOU HAVE RULES QUESTIONS FOR NOVICE, UNIVERSITY (Elite & Premier levels):

These email addresses are only intended for rulings on videos regarding the Level 1-7 + Novice rules. Every email sent to these addresses should be answerable with one word, LEGAL or ILLEGAL. To get a reply your email must include a level and a video following the guidelines below. Coaches are encouraged to review videos prior to sending them to ensure they are clear and may be utilised for review, including ensuring they display in an upright manner when viewed from a computer.

Please allow 7-10 business days for processing of your video. Response time may increase during periods of high volume. Please do NOT re-send your video within the 7-10-day time frame.

HERE ARE IMPORTANT TIPS TO HELP US GET YOUR RESULTS BACK TO YOU AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.

Guidelines & Reminders:

  • Every email should be answerable with one word, LEGAL or ILLEGAL.
  • Videos must display in an upright manner when viewed from a computer.
  • Videos must be attached. No links to YouTube or other video sites.
  • Videos submitted are subject to be used for educational purposes. If you want your video excluded, please indicate that when submitting a video.
  • Videos should be filmed specifically for the purpose of getting a ruling.
  • Videos must be of your team in a practice environment.
  • Videos must be of a single skill or sequence.
  • Tumbling videos should only include 1 person.
  • Stunt or toss videos should only include 1 group.
  • Pyramid videos may include all members, but should be of 1 side when possible.
  • Videos from competitions, of more than one skill or sequence, or believed to be of other teams will not receive a reply.
  • Video must be of exactly what you want a ruling on. We will not rule on a portion of a video, based on a description, or based on a video with a description of a difference.
  • If you have questions regarding multiple skills, they should be sent in separate emails. Sending multiple angles of the same skill in a single email is allowed, but a separate email is required for each different skill.
  • We can only tell you a skill is LEGAL for a specific level or a skill is ILLEGAL along with citing the rule violated. We will not assist with changing choreography.
  • We expect you to have knowledge of the rules and will not be teaching the rules in our replies.
  • We only rule on the legality of the skill in the video, not the participants.
  • Our ruling is only valid if the skill is performed the same way in the video and at the event. If called on a skill we said was legal, the safety judge or official at the event should point out the difference.
  • Don’t ask us to call, text, or contact you via any method other than email. We cannot give official replies via text, Facebook, Twitter, our personal email accounts, or any other non-AASCF method.
  • Please watch the video before sending it in to make sure it’s a clear. We’ve received several videos that we couldn’t rule on due to something that would have been obvious if the video was watched in advance, such as the view being blocked by a finger of the camera holder.
  • Please ensure there are no extra people in the video that could impact the ruling, such as someone that is in view and could unintentionally be considered a spotter.
  • It is your responsibility to have the original email containing the ruling with you at events. This specifically means the email directly from cheer.rules@IASFworlds.com  or rules@aascf.com.au , not a forwarded version of the email.
