How many Special Requirements are there on Bars, Beam, and Floor routines, and what is their point value each?

• A. All Bars, Beam, and Floor routines have 4 Special Requirements worth 0.50 each
• B. All routines have 3 Special Requirements worth 0.60 each
• C. Only Bars have Special Requirements
• D. There are no Special Requirements in these events

Answer: (A)

Special Requirements are mandatory elements that must be included in Bars, Beam, and Floor routines. For these three events, there are four such requirements, and each one is worth 0.50. So, if all four are properly included, they contribute a total of 2.0 points to the routine’s score. The other options don’t fit because these events share the same four requirements, each valued at 0.50, rather than having a different number or no requirements at all.
