Jury & Judging
Judging structure for the 2026 CMAS World Championship — the roles on-site and the international jury appointed by the CMAS Visual Commission. Anonymous online scoring.
Anonymised Online Judging
A nine-member international jury appointed by the CMAS Visual Commission judges the championship. Scoring is anonymised and conducted online.
