10. Recording on the Drawsheet
All entries need to be clear and legible.
It is important to record the names of winning competitors clearly. They will become necessary for both working out the repechage, and awarding the medals.
When working out the repechage, it is important to mark all competitors each finalist has beaten. The first two competitors beaten by finalist “A” are then paired up, the winner then competes against the third competitor to lose to finalist “A” and so on, until all beaten competitors by finalist “A” have eliminated each other apart from the winner. This person is a Bronze medal winner. This process is repeated for finalist “B” establishing the second, and joint Bronze medal winner.

11. Recording on the Scoresheet
All entries need to be clear and legible.
Final scores need to be recorded accurately. In the case of team matches draws need to be settled using aggregate scores. In team and individual matches scores are required as a back up should the scoreboard fail.
Warnings and penalties need to be recorded accurately. The referee or tatami chief may need to refer back to the amount and type of warnings or penalties imposed.

16. Recording for Kata Competition
No scoresheet is used for competition, a drawsheet is all that is required.
Entries made on the drawsheet will mirror those on a Kumite drawsheet, e.g. the winner/winning team promoted to the next round.
The scoretable are responsible for counting the flags to record the winner.
The only time restriction will relate to team medal matches, where 5 minutes will be allowed for the entire Kata and bunkai performance. This is timed from the initial team bow at the edge of the area, and terminates as the team do their final bow after the performance.
The repechage system will be used
