Tie Breaker Policy – Floor, Beam, Bars

2. If a tie still remains, use the Chief Judge’s score.
3. If a tie still remains, use the number of completed bonus high superior elements of all judges.
4. If a tie still remains, use the Chief Judge’s completed bonus high superior elements.
5. If a tie still remains, use the total Bonus category points given by all judges.
6. If a tie still remains, use the total Bonus category points given by the Chief Judge.
7. If a tie still remains, add the total of all judge’s execution deductions; the athlete with the fewer
execution deductions advances.
8. If a tie still remains, use the Chief Judge’s execution deductions; the athlete with the fewer
execution deductions advances.
9. If a tie still remains, the Chief Judge will flip a coin to determine the advancer.
Tie Breaker Policy for the Vault
1. Average all the judge’s scores of the tied vault.
2. If a tie still remains, use the Chief Judge’s score of the tied vault.

ALL-AROUND
At the first-level meet, the all-around competitors will privately indicate to the meet referee
the event where the score would be used if a tie occurs. If a tie occurs after averaging and
totaling the judges’ scores in all four events, it will be resolved in the following sequence:
1. When there are two or three judges, go to (3);
2. When there are four judges per event, average the four judges scores in each event
and total these scores for all four events, if a tie remains;
3. Total the Chief Judge’s scores in each event to determine the higher place, if a tie
remains;
4. Add the total of all judge’s execution deductions on each beginning with vault (using
Olympic Order); the athlete with the fewer execution deductions advances, if a tie
still remains;
5. Use the Chief Judges execution deductions on each event beginning with vault (using
Olympic Order) the athlete with the fewer execution deductions advances, if a tie still
remains;
6. The score of the events selected by the gymnasts prior to competition would be
applied:
a. If the gymnasts selected the same event, the gymnast with the higher score in
that event would receive the higher place.
b. If the gymnasts selected two different events the scores of the two events
would be totaled for each gymnast. The gymnast receiving the higher
combined score would receive the higher place, if a tie still remains;
7. A flip of a coin will determine the gymnast who will advance.
TEAM
Each section meet may advance its first place team to the state. The first place scores will be
determined by the highest four scores for each team from each event. In the case of a tie, all
five scorers will be totaled to determine the champion. For a team to qualify, it must consist
of five entries per event, at least one of who must be an all-around competitor. Each team
may include four alternates.
Team trophies and medals will be awarded to the champion and runner-up. Medals will be awarded to
the first six places in each event including the all-around.
