Scoring & judging
Judges score every routine using FIG standards—MAG Senior and WAG Level 10 code of points.
Standings use percentile ranking, not raw FIG totals. Each routine is ranked against everyone else on that same apparatus. Your points are the share of the field you beat: 100 for the best on that apparatus, 0 for the last. Mixed teams stay fair because a strong beam score and a strong high bar score are compared the same way. Team totals are the sum of those points across all routines.
