Scoring System
The Open Natural™ will feature categories for Men's Bodybuilding, Women's Bodybuilding, Women's Figure, Men's Classic Physique, Bikini and Men's Physique.
Competitors of ages 16-39 will be set in the Open group. Contestants over 40 years old can compete in Masters 40-49, Masters 50-59, and Masters 60+. At the event of any of the groups being overly populated, the Head Judge reserves the right to split into height classes (e.g., Bikini Open tall, Bikini Open short).
A standard panel of 5 judges will adopt the Ranking System, which consists in assigning every participant an ordinal number (first, second, third, etc.). Then the ordinal numbers of each judge will be added for each category. The contestant with the lesser total score wins their category.
Every athlete will receive an Open Natural exclusive champion medallion, and top 3 athletes on each open category will be awarded sculpture trophies. First-place finishers of each category will compete for the over-all winner award. One male and one female athlete will receive a custom-made Champion Weight Belt in addition to a $500 cash prize!
