How the Worlds will run
Performance Order
Performance orders ( The order at which each team will perform their routine) for all divisions ( A division is category you team competes in e.g level 5 etc) will be randomly drawn within country groupings and published online or early to mid-April 2025.
Teams that advance to finals will perform in reverse order based on their ranking from the previous round. Results will be announced at the end of each division’s competition round.
Scoring
Keep in mind that each team will receive a raw score first, followed by a final score once any deductions have been applied. The final score is the one that truly matters, as it determines rankings and placements.
Scores do not carry over from one performance to the next. Updated Worlds score sheets are available online.
