SCORING & RESULTS
Scoring is done by a 4 judge pannel who have competed the Mid Americal Tumbling Soceity's training. The highest and lowest judges score is thrown out to determine final score. Judges decisions are final.
Awards are given after session 3 (for sessions 1,2,3), after session 6 (for sessions 4, 5, 6) and after session 9 for sessions 7, 8, 9). For each awards session the team members will walk out on to the floor as a group and sit together. Places will then be awarded and tumblers will be called to stand on the podium and receive their awards. Please send your tumbler to meet the team at the end of session 3, session 6 and session 9 to parade on to the floor as a team. Meeting location will be in the corner of the gym by entry. The team will sit together and receive their awards. Although tumblers must be present for awards for the sessions they competed in, they are invited to join the team on the floor for ALL awards sessions to support their team members. This is not a requirement but encouraged if tumblers are in the building.
Please do not leave without taking a picture.
