Performance Curve

Each athletic achievement is represented as a percentage value and evaluated over a performance curve as appropriate proportion of maximally 1000 points.

Maximum Points

The maximum number of points that can be achieved per sport discipline is 1000 points (which corresponds to the best in the respective sport).

Disciplines

Depending on the event, each participant may choose up to 16 disciplines from all available sports.

Sports Group

At least one sport per group must be selected from a prescribed minimum number of groups (compulsory number for the election of different groups). The choice of groups is free. The number of available groups is usually greater than the number of groups from which to choose (mandatory number 8 groups). Example: There are 9 groups of sports available, but only 8 groups of sports have to be chosen (at least 1 sport per group - rest selection is free).

Top 10 Results

Any result that does not fall into the top 10 results is automatically considered as a tricks result, but remains valid as a result in the corresponding sport.

Choice of sports

After the choice of 8 sports from 8 different groups, all other sports from all available sports may be selected.

Groups Special Rule

Ignoring the sports groups - free choice: The following sports may ALWAYS be selected (without having to pay attention to the group distribution key): Sprinttriathlon, Military obstacle course, Obstacle Swimming, 100 m freestyle, track diving, 2000 m run (valid as a co-discipline / substitute discipline for the 1500 m of the decathlon), 100 m sprint, long jump, high jump, shot put, javelin throw. Additionally selected sports have to follow the distribution rules again.

Not all sports

Each participant is free to participate in less than 10 sports and to calculate their fitness levels from the lower number of sports. In such cases, participants automatically participate in the groups with the least number of sports. Overall victory or high placement in the Universale may be unlikely, but theoretically a choice of 9 higher-performance disciplines could be a strategic option.

Few chosen Sports

Each participant is free to participate in less than 10 sports and to calculate their fitness levels from the lower number of sports. In such cases, participants automatically participate in the groups with the least number of sports. Overall victory or high placement in the Universale may be unlikely, but theoretically a choice of 9 higher-performance disciplines could be a strategic option.

Bad Result

A bad result in a sport is neither a problem nor a shame for a wider choice of sports (strike-out result). Each participant may and should also dare to unknown sports.

Even groups can choose from a choice of fewer than 10 sports and are then scored accordingly.

Safety

It is absolutely necessary that everyone follows the safety rules at the sports places and the rules of fairness.

Standard Combination

There is a combination of 12 sports as a standard combination for the Universal, which may be seen as a basic proposal, but of course in each form individually changed, or can be adapted to their own ideas.

Ranking

All scores are basically the overall rating in which all participants compete automatically. There is no own men's rating, but in addition a women's ranking and own special ratings in the context of age groups and own group ratings.

Objectives

The objectives of the Universals are diverse, with the fun of the sport and the competition experience in the foreground, but at the same time the health aspects and accompanying effects should be considered and promoted.
