Sports Model Rounds

There are 3 judged rounds:

1st round; Bikini round, girls will walk on stage wearing a bikini and heals and perform quarter MODEL turns in their line up, (face front, turn to the right, face the back of the stage, and quarter turn to the right) then once judged file off stage.

2nd round; (performed later in the show) Free/sports wear. Girls choose their own outfit and work the stage indiviually displaying their figure and personality, (this may be themed - example tennis outfit, baseball player, snow bunny, aerobics instructor , life saver etc etc) then the girls will form a line, final judging will be done, then file off stage

3rd Round; Evening gown, girls walk out individually and perform a model walk across the stage in their chosen gown, they will then form a line for final judging.
All 3 rounds of scores are collated and the placings awarded.

EXTRA INFORMATION - Girls are given a running order of the show at registration which will outline when you will appear on stage. There are 3 rounds which require 3 clothing changes. Adequate time is given for you to create your new look. Heels are required to be worn during bikini & Evening wear. Strong emphasis is placed on personal grooming and appearance as well as your body. Judges are looking for an athletic woman who has a toned figure without being too muscular. We are looking for a figure that is sculpted from any form of exercise and good nutrition with low levels of body fat.
Your bikini round is judged on overall body composition, body symmetry, pose and presentation on stage
Your Free wear round is judged on how your selected outfit accentuates your figure in all the right ways along with pose and presentation on stage
Your Evening wear round is judged on dress selection and how it accentuates again your figure. It can be long or short but it must show elegance not generally a dress you would wear out to the night club.
Keep in mind Sports Model is all about an overall package from head to toe. Your body is always the main focal point but how you carry yourself and present the overall package is what the judging is all about.
