US Open Team Cup Scoring Matrices (§ 22.5)
The US Open Scoring Engine calculates academy standings and final leaderboard placement using the strict order of operations:
Final Score = Base Points + Bonuses - Penalties
§ 22.5.1 Base Point Schedule

|---|---|---|
| Elite Class Win | 1+ Pro bout (Adults 18+ only) | +50 Points |
| Class A (Open) Win | 13+ Amateur bouts, 0 Pro | +40 Points |
| Class B (Intermediate) Win | 6–12 Amateur bouts, 0 Pro | +25 Points |
| Class C (Novice) Win | 0–5 Amateur bouts, 0 Pro | +20 Points |
| Class D (Development) Win | 0–2 Amateur bouts, 0 Pro (§ 5.2) | +15 Points |

Walk-Over Note (§ 22.5.1 & § 22.6.3): A win by Walk-Over (§ 18.4.3) accrues standard Base Points. However, if a bout involving a Team Captain ends in a walk-over, scoring is handled strictly using base points and no special performance bonuses are awarded.
§ 22.5.2 Graduated Gold Bonus Schedule
Division Champions| Bracket Size* | Elite | Class A | Class B | Class C | Class D |

| 2 Athletes | +10 | +10 | +10 | +10 | +10 |
*Bracket Sizing & Byes (§ 22.5.3 & § 22.5.6): Determined by the total number of active competitors present and cleared to compete in that division at the time of the draw (including first-round byes). An athlete must compete in at least one official bout to earn a placement award, medal, or team points.

§ 22.5.5 Disciplinary Deductions & Penalties
Two-Tier StructureAny athlete disqualified due to an accidental or unintentional foul during a bout will be declared the loser. Because these infractions occur as a byproduct of live competition, the athlete's academy will not incur an additional team point deduction and will still receive participation points (+5).
Any athlete disqualified for administrative failures such as failing to make weight (for events where there are multiple weigh-ins), no-shows, intentional malicious fouls, unsportsmanlike conduct, or severe violations of the US Open Code of Conduct. Also applies to both competitors in a "No Decision" (§ 18.6).
