# Creating and Editing Judging Criterion

You can create up to 20 judging criteria per event. Event judges will see the full set of criteria during the judging phase of the event.

Available categories for a judging criterion:

* Performance
* Cost
* Feasibility
* Teamwork
* Presentation
* Innovation
* Other

The summary of each criterion helps highlight what is actually being judged for each team submission.

A criterion's weight is applied to the 1-10 star score judges submit for each team. You may, for example, want to give a higher weight to a criterion in the "Performance" category than to the "Teamwork" criterion.
