Competitive performance opportunities will be offered at all virtual events this season. This segment is for groups who wish to have a more traditional season of competition and will most closely resemble a normal year. Groups must have a minimum of six performers in order to participate in this segment. We will use a modified scoring system with a three-judge panel (40% Music, 20% Visual, 40% Effect). Participating groups will receive commentary and scores from all three judges and will be compared to others in their classification. Virtual Awards will be presented to groups for distribution on social media and other outlets.
