The first international judging courses for the new Olympic cycle were held in Switzerland earlier this month. These intercontinental courses across all codes are the most highly ranked of the judging courses and give judges final clarification of international rule changes. Congratulations to all judges who attended these courses.

We would like to especially congratulate the following judges who have achieved a category 1 brevet qualification – this is the highest level of international judging with only 25 judges in the world per code awarded this category.

• Rhythmic (individual): Tracey Redhead (Counties Manukau Gymnastics)
• Trampoline: Maree Calder (technical member)
• Women’s artistic: Nyssa Willcocks (Timaru Gymnastics)

We wish all judges the best for the 2025-2028 cycle.
