In the Championships they will keep score 1st place= 10 points, 2nd place= 8 points, 3rd place = 6 points, 4th place = 4 points, 5th place = 2 points, & 6th place =1 point. There will be medals for 1st-3rd place and ribbons for 4th-6th place (these medals and ribbons mean you scored points for your team.) Note: If your team gets 1st, 2nd, & 3rd places it is called a “Sweep” So, you don’t have to be THE best at an event,  just try to get a personal record (PR) at every meet. :) All we expect is that you give your best effort to improve every day. :) Make us proud!
