The rules are in place to uphold the integrity of the competition and keep it fair for all competitors. 

It is so important you thoroughly read both the General Rules and the Category Rules for every category you are competing in. 

Breaches of rules will result in points deduction or disqualification. 

Most disqualifications that take place are because competitors simply didn’t read the rules properly. It’s so disappointing to be disqualified after so much hard work.

Judges scoresheets have been made available to competitors.

Reviewing these may greatly assist you in your preparation.
