Divisions & scoring
Built on the UK Scoring System.
Ignyte runs to the UK Scoring System (SportCheer UK) — the same levels, age grid, legalities and categories your athletes already train and compete to. Below is the structure for our debut; final divisions follow the current published UK grid and are confirmed before entries open.

First-time and half-year teams easing into competition.
Level 1

Level 2

Age grids
Where teams land.
Age divisions follow the UK Scoring System age grid (athlete age at the season cut-off date). Indicative bands below — exact ages are confirmed against the current published grid before entries open.
Scoring
How routines are judged.
Every division is judged on the UK Scoring System by an experienced panel, with the full rubric, ranges and legalities published before entries close — so you know exactly how you're scored.
| Component | Weighting | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Difficulty | Per UK SS | Skill value across tumbling, stunts and jumps (cheer) or technique (dance), to UK Scoring System ranges. |
| Execution | Per UK SS | Technique, synchronisation, control and cleanliness. |
| Performance | Per UK SS | Energy, showmanship and crowd connection. |
| Choreography | Per UK SS | Creativity, formations, use of the floor and music. |
| Deductions | Published | Legality, time, boundary and falls — published in full. |
Weightings shown are provisional. The full, final scoresheet is published before entries close.
