To me, there is just no way this shouldn't be done. I ALWAYS go over them with my team, because how else are they going to know what to focus on for next time? And, I don't just read them out loud, I explain things and try to get them to explain things too, so they can have a better understanding of it. (For instance, "watch technique on jumps" I'll ask them "so, what does that mean?" And when the kids start responding with rapid fire answers like "chest up" "toes pointed" "sharp motions" "chin up" "roll hips", then I know I'm doing my job teaching them lol) If it's a 1-day or a local, I will go over it with the kids at the next practice (though, usually if it's a local that uses an "old-school" or nonUSASF format, I won't spend the time lol). If it's a 2-day, I will always call a team meeting with them on the Sat night to review. At my previous gym, we allowed parents to be at this meeting and hear some of the things we said. I didn't really like it at first, but I got used to it. I'm curious to know if it is common at other gyms to allow parents to hear your scoresheet comments when reviewing them with your team?
