Award levels (adjudication tiers): how a score becomes Gold or Platinum
An award level is the band a routine's average score falls in. Each competition names its own levels and sets the score range for each one.
Bands, not rankings
Award levels are not a ranking. Every routine whose average lands in the Platinum range receives Platinum, however many routines that is. Placements and overalls, which do rank routines against each other, are a separate step. See placements and overalls.
How a score is matched to a band
- Each band has a minimum and a maximum score, both inclusive.
- The routine's average, rounded to two decimals, is compared against the bands in order. The first band whose range contains the score is the award level.
- A score that falls in none of the bands is shown as Participation.
- Everything is compared at two decimals: a band that ends at 89.99 and the next that starts at 90.00 leave no gap, and an average of 89.995 rounds up to 90.00 before it is matched.
| Level | From | To |
|---|---|---|
| Diamond | 95.00 | 100.00 |
| Platinum | 90.00 | 94.99 |
| Gold | 85.00 | 89.99 |
| Silver | 80.00 | 84.99 |
| Bronze | 0.00 | 79.99 |
Who sets the bands
The competition does. The level names, colours and ranges are part of the competition's scoring settings. A competition that runs several events can also override its ranges for one event, so a regional and a national can use different cut-offs.
There is no built-in ladder that applies on its own: if a competition has not set its bands, scores cannot be tabulated until it does.
This is how CompSync tabulates.
Judges score on tablets, the averages, award levels, placements and overalls are worked out live, and the awards roll straight to the venue screens. Every rule on this page is a setting in your competition.
