Scrap Results

Depending on the number of sports offered, each participant can choose from 12, 14 or 16 sports. ALWAYS only the 10 best results are scored. Accordingly, there are 2, 4 or 6 strike results at each event. Petty results give each participant the opportunity to compensate for low scores by performing in other disciplines. Trying is about studying: The results of the strike can also be used to fulfill this principle in competition at the Universale.

Choosing only few disciplines

Petty results give each participant the opportunity to compensate for low scores by performing in other disciplines. Trying is about studying: The results of the strike can also be used to fulfill this principle in competition at the Universale.

Saving and dividing forces

It is obvious that in the 100 m freestyle competition (scratching) you will not reach your best performance if you have been on the track diving immediately before (and vice versa). A clever division of forces and good timing therefore play a decisive role in terms of competition. The same can be said for individual sports, such as the military obstacle course. Anyone who spends too much can later face a performance slump. Who participates, learns.

How to choose

As a rule, it is wise to turn to those sports in which one hopes for the most points. In general, however, one should also turn to those disciplines that one would like to complete. After all, the Universal is all about having fun in sports. Ultimately, you can choose all sports freely to your heart's content or choose from a purely strategic point of view.

The sports groups

All sports are grouped in sports groups, which are easily recognizable by their numbering. In the choice of sports, each participant must choose at least 8 out of 9 sports groups one sport each. After the choice of 8 sports from 8 different groups, all other sports from all remaining sports may be chosen (that is, from the entire list).

Number of attempts per sport

As a rule, participants have the option of making several attempts per sport. In disciplines such as shot put or long jump, 3 attempts are common. In Universale, however, there are also special rules for entry attempts for other disciplines. Some sports offer only one entry option - a circumstance that may change at another event. The ultimate goal is to determine the best possible performance of each participant. At the air rifle competition each competitor has the chance to do five test shots. Then two series of 10 shots have to be completed, of which only the best series will be scored. The current rules for the sports can be found in the rules sheet. You can click on the sport on the current login page.

Timing

The possibilities for scheduling can be found in the schedule. With the help of the timetable, each participant can create their own, strategically optimized, temporal competition plan. If an athlete does not appear, the place may be occupied by another competitor. The non-published athlete can make up for his attempt to enter at a later date. Important: A valid score in the system is only possible if the participant has been paid in the system (either by a valid payment or by an exemption from the administrator).

Fitness result

Basically, a certain fitness value can be calculated out of less than 10 sports, but the Universal is designed so that the fitness result results as a relational value of 10 x 1000 points, ie 10,000 points.

Points

The goal is to achieve the highest possible number of points. It should be noted that the points of each completed sport are important for the total fitness value and any value that is created around the 500 point mark, already represents a very high value. The points represent a relative value to the maximum number of points of 1000 points in a power curve. Each meter and every second counts in a higher power range more than the meter or the second before.

Strategic planning

Sports such as the biathlon clearly show that very fast laps can have a quick impact on the shooting result and a missed shot leads to a penalty loop. Breathlessness at the shooting range stands against a fast running time. The rest is a calculation example. Calculations such as these are the usual craft in Universal. Many participants, however, make it easy in this regard and just always do their best - as long as they can.

Mental Strength

The importance of mental strength is often underestimated, and it is precisely this that makes them the tip of the scales. Often everything runs like clockwork, but sometimes something goes wrong. Especially with concentration sports, such as air rifle, archery, mini golf, billiard, but also sports bowling, a bad start can quickly lead to the participant only half-heartedly concludes the discipline and thus gives away valuable points. A crafty ball counts as much as valuable dive meters or hard won seconds. Participants who do not let their fighting spirit and concentration be taken away in such situations have a clear competitive advantage.

Fluid balance

The fluid balance is a crucial point for high performance. For this, a sufficient fluid supply is necessary. As a rule, isotonic liquids (soup, apple juice, fruit juices mixed with water) or water best support athletic performance. During sports activities there are major water losses (mainly due to sweating). The brain is also dependent on a sufficient water supply in order to maintain its efficiency. In addition, the oxygen transport suffers when the blood becomes more viscous due to a higher fluid loss.

Nutrition

A sufficient nutrient supply is necessary for a good athletic performance. Care must be taken to ensure that you can not cope with exercise-intensive sports for a long time, either with an empty stomach or a crowded stomach. In addition, it is important to ensure an adequate supply of important minerals - e.g. Magnesium and calcium.

Appreciation

All participants are listed in the overall standings regardless of gender, age or special classes. There is no own men's rating. Accordingly, every male athlete can in principle be referred by every lady, every teenager and every senior athlete on the ranks. This applies to the total number of points as well as for each individual sport.

Women's classification

In addition to the overall ranking, there is also a separate women's rating, so that the ladies of creation receive a double motivation. For some ladies experience shows that the overall ranking is a particularly attractive task. Others prefer to rely on the women's rating - until they realize that you can attack the achievements of men very well.

Fun factor

As a rule, the fun in the variety of sports is so great that most participants take the Universale as an opportunity to train after the Universale in their chosen sports, or continue to train. The next universal is definitely coming.
