  1. NISA FIELD MOVES 2007 COACH AND JUDGE TRAINING

  2. Where are we now? • School figures not compulsory after 1995 • Skaters don’t skate figures • Knowledge of individual turns and edges decreases • Standard of basic skating decreases NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  3. CURRENT FIELD MOVES • Lack of emphasis on edge and turns from many coaches and judges • Lack of specific practice ice time • Total test mark allows tests to pass without all moves being to a reasonable standard NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  4. THE PLAN • All Licensed coaches required to attend a Field Move seminar from 2006 in order to enter a skater for any National Test or Open Competition • All judges required to attend a Field Move seminar in 2006 in order to judge any National Test or Open Competition NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  5. THE BLADE • Each blade has two edges . • Standing flat both edges will touch the ice • Leaning to left or right will lift one edge NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  6. Leaning to left or right when skating will cause circling which increases with the degree of lean. • Quality skating relies on the correctuse of these edges, one at a time, by use of the body lean. • Correct use of posture, knee bend and arm positions are also required. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  7. These curves,if allowed to extend and continue become lobes, circles or spiralling edges. • Most Field Moves are based on these lobes and circles. • Most circle/lobe exercises are set on the size of original school figures NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  8. Short axis When skaters progress around one circle they may also advance along the length of the rink by changing onto the next circle. The change over point occurs along the short axis as it crosses the long axis NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  9. Changes of feet should occur at the juncture of the long and short axis so that each lobe to the left and right of the long axis is of equal size. • A few Field Moves are based on much smaller lobes but still set around a long and short axis. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  10. Other Field Moves are full circles in both directions which can be separate, joined or overlaid. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  11. THE TURNS All turns may start on the left or right foot, forwards or backwards and from either edge. Threes The top of these turns face into the circle/lobe which the skater is completing. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  12. Brackets The top of these turns face out of the circle/lobe which the skater is completing Counters progress from one circle into a second. The first section of a counter turn is a bracket facing out of the first circle changing to a three into the second circle. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  13. Rockers also progress from one circle to another. The first section of a rocker turn is a three facing into the first circle changing into a bracket facing out of the second circle. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  14. Double Threes These consist of two consecutive threes skated in rhythm usually with equal length of lobes before, between and after the turns. They can be skated on a full circle or on a smaller half circle lobe. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  15. Loops The only loop used in the Field Moves is the back inside loop. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  16. Mohawks Foot and direction change but the edge remains the same e.g. FI - BI e.g. FO - BO NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  17. Choctaws The foot, direction and the edge change . e.g. Rfo-Lbi Back choctaws not shown on the dvd. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  18. Twizzles These consist of travelling turns on one foot with quick,continuous rotation. The balance is over the middle of the blade rather than towards the heel or toe. Three turns or double three do NOT constitute twizzles because of the lack of continuous action. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  19. Turns –The Weight Change • Back turns- weight moves towards the heel • Forward turns –weight moves towards the toe • The skating knee rises up into the turn, lifts as the turn is executed and then falls smoothly onto the next edge. • The result is clean edges without scraping and flats NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  20. Summary Field moves may be made up of circles or lobes And each circle, or lobe of a circle, or portion of a field move may have different repetitions and therefore be of different standards. Therefore give a mark in your head to each side of the rink or each circle. Add these 2 together and divide by 2. Some exercises may have a slightly different additional step on 2nd side in order for skaters to be able to commence on the relevant edge. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  21. Marking System We are all used to the 6.0 system and should continue to use it as an Educational and Progression assessment tool. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  22. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  23. Reminder for all National Tests and all Non IJS Competitions We must equate the standard we give at tests with competitionsso coaches,skaters and parents can see improvements and progression. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  24. The areas to consider • Carriage and Style (Posture) • Body lean into the circle • Flow (speed) • Knee bend • Edges • Clean turns • Correct push off • Pattern of Field Move NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  25. Field Move Test Rules • Clean ice • Background warm up music is acceptable but not during tests. • Levels 1-7 -All moves compulsory • Levels 8-10 –Any four selected and judges advised. • One attempt at each Field Move • Maximum two reskates on Separate Field Moves. • One judge –Levels 1-6 • Two judges –Levels 7-10 NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  26. Small Rinks (Less than 40metres) • Only Levels 1-6 may be skated on small rinks. • Field moves may be split along both sides of the rink but the minimum number of lobes must still be skated in one continuous exercise without loss of speed and still to the required standard. • i.e.the minimum number of lobes for the first side of an exercise should be completed in total even if this continues along the second side BEFORE starting the required number of lobes for the second side of the exercise. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  27. Test Equivalency As at 1st January 2007 any skater holding Field Moves or Dance Moves, Level 9 and 10 complete elements and free tests and any complete Competitive tests gained equivalency with the new 2007 Field Moves. See page 7 of National Test booklet. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  28. IMPORTANT PLEASE REMEMBER These Field Moves are generic to all disciplines. They are not School Figures They are not Compulsory Dances Dance and Singles technique are equally acceptable and both dance and singles judges must understand this generic approach and judge accordingly. NISA FIELD MOVES JANUARY 2007

  29. Seminar Day DVD Levels 1-3, 4-6, 7/8 and 9/10 & discussions On ice demonstration of each FM with written marks and notes. On ice session for coaches and judges with moderators. Follow up session to discuss demonstrations and marks. Additional session covering amendments to National singles,pairs and dance tests and any other relevant topic as time allows.
