Scoring
Stix awards

Keeping Individual Score Sheets
You should keep hold of the completed individual score sheets for each of your candidates in case of future attempts at the Stix Awards so a comparison can be made between each attempt.

The points required to win Stix Skills Gold, Silver, Bronze and Cub have been determined following extensive testing of the skills among the 11-16 year old age group. Standards will obviously vary across age groups and also within groups, but the tests have been designed to reward improvement or skill acquisition and also encourage ongoing development as kids work towards ever higher Stix Skills standards. As a result, the oints required to achieve the Stix Skills standards are:

Gold 160 or more points
Silver 135-159 points
Bronze 108-134 points
Cub Below 108 points

Completing Group Score Sheets and Ordering Awards
