Редактирование: Рейтинговые конкурсы WSDC

=== WSDC ===
World Swing Dance Council (WSDC) — это организация, которая централизованно ведёт историю конкурсных успехов танцоров WCS 

===Когда и где?===
Ближайшие [[ивенты]] с рейтинговыми конкурсами WSDC неподалёку — [[Календарь ивентов|в нашем календаре ивентов]]

Полный список рейтинговых ивентов можно посмотреть [https://www.worldsdc.com/events/ на сайте WSDC].

===Дивизионы (Divisions)===
[[WSDC]] централизованно отслеживает успехи танцоров и делит их по мастерству на дивизионы. Для этого в рамках специально отмеченных как WSDC Registry Event [[Ивенты|ивентов]] проводятся рейтинговые [[Jack and Jill]] конкурсы, отдельно для каждого дивизиона:

*Newcomer
*Novice
*Intermediate
*Advanced
*All-Star
*Champions

Чтобы поучаствовать в конкурсе соответствующего уровня, надо либо удовлетворять WSDC требованиям, либо получить согласие от главного судьи через петицию.

===Поинты (Points)===
Если выйдешь в финал — есть шанс получить поинты, набираешь необходимое кол-во поинтов — переходишь в следующий дивизион.

===Правила перехода между дивизионами===

===Тиры (Tiers)===
Тир (транскрипция с англ. Tier) конкурса для конкретной роли (партнёр/партнёрша) определяет, сколько поинтов ты получишь, если займёшь определённое место в финале. Важно, что тир считается для партнёров и партнёрш отдельно, и возможен вариант, когда у партнёров один тир, а у партнёрш в том же конкурсе — другой, просто потому, что партнёрш было больше.

'''Пример''': сколько поинтов получит партнёр, занявший первое место в Novice J&J на последнем Westie Fest 2020? 

Открываем [https://danceconvention.net/eventdirector/en/eventpage/6552080-moscow-westie-fest-2020/divisions регистрации], видим 23 партнёра, это Тир 3, поэтому ответ: 10 поинтов.

===Этапы отборов (Rounds)===
WSDC в том числе регламентирует, сколько промежуточных этапов должно быть для конкурса, в зависимости от максимального тира для партнёров и партнёрш.
{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"

'''Пример''': возьмём тот же Novice J&J на Westie Fest 2020. Как должен был проведён этот конкурс? Открываем [https://danceconvention.net/eventdirector/en/eventpage/6552080-moscow-westie-fest-2020/divisions регистрации], видим 23 партнёра и 42 партнёрши, этапы определяются по бо́льшему кол-ву участников, т.е. по партнёршам, итого 4 тир, обязательно 3 этапа: отборы, полуфиналы и финал.

===Подробнее===
Более подробную информацию можно найти в первоисточнике на сайте WSDC: https://worldsdc.com, в частности, в последней версии документа [https://www.worldsdc.com/wsdc-points-registry-rules/ WSDC Points Registry Rules].

===Критерии WSDC судейства===
На текущий момент нет абсолютной шкалы для оценки, да и сама система конкурса выбирает лучших среди имеющихся участников.

Конкретные критерии судейства главный судья обговаривает со всеми судьями перед конкурсом.

Ряд судей поделились своим мнением, дальше их и изложим :)
====Gary Jobst====
Большой опыт в качестве главного судьи, соучастник в организации судейской сертификации: https://globalpdia.com/ 

Выделил 7 критериев, первые три иногда называют 3T (Timing, Technique, Teamwork), каждый следующий дивизион включает в себя все предыдущие критерии:

Полагается на те же критерии, что и Gary Jobst, только чуть по-другому их делит по дивизионам, вольная интерпретация ниже, чем больше плюсов — тем выше уровень ожиданий:

!Showmanship
|
|
|
|
| - Showmanship is about pulling the audience in to what you're doing because of the creativity, fun, and connection you are creating between the "PARTNERSHIP"
- Showmanship creates opportunities for one or both to shine. 

- Showmanship DOESN'T mean that you need to be presenting/looking out at the crowd the whole time.- Scores will be based on the balance of connecting with the audience, drawing the audience into your partnership, and creating memorable moments that don't compromise the integrity of the dance.

Для партнёрш:
Пара пояснений за термины:

# FOOT ALIGNMENT: Steps, Turns & Anchors with lead foot aligned in the direction of dance, Proper foot Turnout, originating from open body/ hip Angles. Use of foot flexion when appropriate.
# GROUNDED FOOT ACTION: Connection into the floor, through downward (rolling) placement, visible in Leg Lines & Hip Movement. Followers use of the back of toe base as the primary articulation area. Smooth transitions on direction changes, using continuous controlled foot movement to control speed and create stretch
# BALANCED WEIGHT TRANSFERS. Power/action of the Sending foot from the 3-toe base generally resulting in a straight leg upon weight transfer. Receiving foot precedes weight transfer, & stays within the natural stride length during traveling movement. Use of weight transfer to create momentum & speed control, while centering body weight over each landing foot. Tight tracking of feet when passing each other.
