WSA believes that the ordinal rank is of great importance to coaches, participants, and parents.  WSA's score system is focused on creating the correct ordinal rank.  

WSA judging panels and head judges are required to create an ordinal rank of each division they score.  The judges totaled scores and their ordinal rank must be the same.  Judges reserve the right to recall an entire divisions score sheets to review their scores.

Total score will be derived from two different areas:

1. Difficulty (50% of final score)
      a. This score is determined in two parts:
                  i.  The percentage of athletes executing the minimal required skill for their level of competition
                  ii. The difficulty of the skill being performed.

      b. Teams receive a difficulty score in 5 areas:

                  i.      Basket Tosses
                  ii.     Partner Stunts
                  iii.    Pyramids
                  iv.    Standing Tumbling
                  v.     Running Tumbling    
     
2.  Execution (50% of final score)
      a. Execution score is subjective to each judge.

      b. The team completing the cleanest, most synchronized, and most exciting routine will score higher in                  execution.

      c. Teams receive an execution score in 10 areas:

                  i.      Basket Tosses
                  ii.     Partner Stunts
                  iii.    Pyramids
                  iv.    Standing Tumbling
                  v.     Running Tumbling   
                  vi.    Jumps
                  vii.   Dance/Motions
                  viii.  Formations/Synchronization
                  x.     Overall Impression
