Quick answer: move the sliders and tick the deductions below to see how difficulty, execution and deductions combine into a single score - conceptually. The numbers here are invented for illustration only; they don't come from any real governing body's score sheet.

Illustrative only

This tool uses made-up point values to show how the pieces of a score sheet interact - it is not, and is not based on, any specific governing body's or competition provider's real scoring system. See What Is a Score Sheet? for why this site avoids stating real point values, and always use your event's own published score sheet for anything that actually matters.

Difficulty

How technically demanding the chosen skills are in each category. See What Is Difficulty?

Execution

How cleanly and confidently the routine was performed, separate from how hard it was. See What Is Execution?

Deductions

Tick anything that "happened" in this run-through. See What Is a Deduction?

Why We Built This Instead of Copying a Real Score Sheet

Real score sheets vary in structure, category weighting and point values between governing bodies, competition providers and even between seasons - see What Is a Score Sheet?. Presenting one specific system's numbers as "how cheer is scored" would be misleading. This tool keeps the numbers deliberately generic so you can see the shape of the trade-off - difficulty versus execution versus deductions - without mistaking it for a real event's rules.

Rules note: Levels, age grids, skill legality and scoring change between seasons and differ between governing bodies and competition providers. Always confirm current requirements against the official rules for your team's governing body and event.
