AWARDS
Competitors will be judged using a point system, rather than competing directly against each other. Each competitor is assessed individually, similar to an exam, where the focus is on personal achievement and skill.
​
This ensures that each competitor is recognised for their own performance, regardless of how others perform. Each competitor will receive a score, which will determine their achievement for their entry.
BRONZE
50 - 64.9
GOLD
85 - 94.9
SILVER

This method of competition ensures that each participant has an equal chance to showcase their talents and receive recognition for their achievements on stage.

TITLE AWARDS
All entries have the opportunity to earn a major TITLE award,
which is separate from the standard awards given for individual entries.
The scores from each entry will contribute to each competitor’s overall final score.
