Best Combined performances: To qualify, a team must score on more than one attempt. To tabulate the best combined scores for all three drops, the following method was used: Missed drops were given a score of 100, and the combined scores from all three drops were subtracted from 300 By this method, the lower the distance, the higher the score, and 3 misses would result in a score of zero.
