Should you withdraw from the contest, no refunds will be issued if you have paid a registration fee.
Judging
Each contestant will be evaluated by a panel consisting of 3 to 5 previously selected judges. The scoring will be based on a 10-point scale, with each judge providing a score from 1 to 10. The total score for each contestant will be the sum of the judges' scores, resulting in a maximum possible score between 30 and 50 points, depending on the number of judges.
​
All contestants agree that the time, manner, and method of judging the competition will be solely within the discretion of the judges.
