If history repeats itself, then I will post this and there will be multiple edits and updates to the united scoring rubric. Rendering some of the information below incorrect. As of May 15th this is current and hopefully, helpful.
Send this post to your coaches and owners. Comment or email with any questions! Enjoy!This scoresheet has the most percentage of points given to choreography and the big picture than ever before. The ratio is around 60% Execution and 40% Choreo (including pyramid difficulty) for subjective points judges can give. These visuals can also be used to decide where your coaching staff’s time prioritization should go. With only 10.2 points to gain it is vital to not neglect jump execution, toss execution, pyramid diff and EXE, formations/transitions, performance, and dance. Once you are in the High Range for Pyramid Difficulty the judge can only give you .5 points. Dance scores can not be given below a .5 for execution and a .5 for difficulty. Most of the scoresheet is objective now and does not include bias. There is no pace/connection driver in stunts anymore. Magic numbers are in bold. Building teams out with these numbers will help to hit the scoresheet strategically. Certain numbers like 5-10, 12-15, 18-20, & 23-28 present more of a disadvantage for what will be choreographed in these sections of the scoresheet. Jumps for a team under 11 also presents problems. Using the magic numbers listed above helps your team to do more during a routine and gives the athletes that can be in every section a break. If you have a team of around 50% tumbling at level then you could still use sections like jumps and baskets to hit the tumbling numbers cumulatively while giving athletes a break as well. The sport is allowing for more non tumblers on tumbling teams again with the changes on the scoresheet. Stunts, choreography, jumps, and baskets are valuable.If you build your team with an extra flyer, the magic numbers listed above, and 70-80% of your team having the tumbling listed above you should be able to field a competitive team this year. Some teams might not need to have a two man stunt, I would suggest choreographing at least 1. In case your team number changes due to injury or quitting.Each of these 3 division lists are ranked from Lowest First Place Winning Score at the top of the list to Highest First Place Winning Score at the bottom. Top 15 Lowest winning scores were taken from Battle & Jamfest. Top 20 from CS & NCA. Anything under a 98 for The Summit list. For Levels 5 & 6 Junior and Senior the lowest winning score was coupled with it’s AG or Coed counterpart. Instead of including all 12 divisions (Sm,Md,Lrg,) they were placed in the order together.Use links below for accuracy.
