New Scoring System 20 20
Scoring System • The new scoring system is based on a 10 point must system that can be used either with a similar electronic scoring system as in the past or a manual mode (paper scoring) • When the electronic scoring system (ESS) is available, 5 judges will enter the field of play, their position around the ring will be randomly selected by ping pong balls numbered 1 through 5 • When using the manual system, 3 judges will enter the field of play, their position around the ring will be randomly selected by ping pong balls numbered 1 through 3 21 21
Scoring System • Just before starting the bout, the ESS will randomly select 3 judges out of the 5 to score the bout, only the scores of these 3 judges selected will be counted • When using the manual system, all 3 judges will be live • When using the ESS system, the judges will not know if they are live until the end of the bout when their names and scores are announced • At the end of each round, when using the ESS the judges will have 15 seconds to enter their score into the ESS scoring pad 22 22
Scoring System • The judge will select a winner after each round by hitting the red or blue button on the scoring pad or manually writing it on the score card, all judges will declare their winner, but only the 3 live judges scoring the bout will decide the outcome • Each of the judges must determine the winner of the round and award a score of 10 - 9 or less, but not lower than 6, every round must have a declared winner no ties • Whether it is electronic or manual scoring, the supervisor will apply any warnings associated with the bout and make the proper adjustments manually on score cards • With the the electronic scoring, they will inform the ESS tech to apply the warning and it will be noted in the equation 23 23
Scoring System • With manual scoring the proper adjustments will be made once the score cards have been collected (the judge’s full concentration must be dedicated to the bout without distractions) • If the bout is tied, the scoring pad will light up and blink indicating to the judge they have to select a winner • In the event of a tie when using the manual system, when the score card is turned in for the final round, a winner must be declared on the score card 24 24
Scoring System • If the computer system goes down prior to the bout starting, the supervisor will give the referee 5 scorecards to pass out to the judges; the supervisor will randomly select through the blind selection process (ping pong balls) 3 of the 5 judges to score the bout • If the scoring system goes down after the beginning of the first round, score cards will be handed out to all the judges, but only the 3 live judges scores will determine the winner • When scoring manually this will not be an issue 25 25
Scoring Criteria • A boxer will be given value for the following scoring methodology: • Number of quality blows landed on the target area • Domination of the bout • Competitiveness – not giving up and continues to be competitive in the bout 27 27
