How the Martial Arts Point Counter Works
The Martial Arts Point Counter adds the point value of each technique a judge awards, such as 1, 2 or 3 points, and tracks penalties for each competitor.
- Pick the rule set: Choose karate, taekwondo or a custom points setup.
- Tap awarded techniques: Tap the value button on the red or blue side.
- Record penalties: Tap the penalty button to log warnings or penalty points.
- Watch the gap: The tool shows the point gap and flags a gap-based win where the rules use one.
Martial Arts Point Counter Formula
The Martial Arts Point Counter score equals the sum of awarded technique points plus penalty points given by the opponent's fouls.
- Technique points
- Points awarded for scoring techniques
- Opponent penalty points
- Points added for fouls by the other competitor
Example: In a taekwondo bout, Red lands 2 body kicks (2 points each), 1 head kick (3 points) and receives 1 penalty point from Blue's foul. Score = 4 + 3 + 1 = 8.
