Simple system
Olympic style

Dance Crew's Final Score: (60+70+80) / 3 judges = 70 points

Simple system
- The scores for the criteria are summed up for each judge separately. This is how the judge's score is obtained.
- All judges' scores are averaged to make one final score.
- If there are penalty points - the amount of penalty points is subtracted from the final result
Olympic style
- The scores for the criteria are summed up for each judge separately. Thus we have the judge's score.
- From all judges' scores, the Maximum and Minimum scores are removed.
- All remaining judges' scores are averaged to make one final score.
- judge 1 total score: 60
- judge 2 total score: 70
- judge 3 total score: 80
