So i went to a competion in canada today and something happen to me and my team that really upset me and i was just wondering if this had happen to you or if you had ever seen it happen and what was done about it.
Today we only had 1 other team in our division and they had a pretty bad stunt fall, our routines are pretty similar in difficulty as well. We hit a cleann and amazing routine. it was the best we have performed it yet. Even other paerents stopped us to tell us how amazing we were. we thought we had it in the bag.
WE went to awards and were announced as first. Obviously, we were very excited and happy.
Just after we recieved our banner and they were moving onto the next divison our coaches were called to the judges table.
When my coach came back she told us that there had been a mistake. One of the judges when entering a score had put a comma in sted of a period (1,25 not 1.25) so the decimal places aftrer the coma were not added into the final score so we had actually taken second.
I just think that all of this had been checked BEFORE they gave us the award. I am not upset that we got second, i am just mad we got first and then had it taken away.
