STUDENT SHOW NO. 7
Our panel of judges have voted and we're pleased to announce the winners of this year's Student Show. It's our largest show ever. Work from schools in over 20 countries was juried and our best of show winner was from the United Kingdom and two of our three gold medals were from Hong Kong and our third was from the US. Congratulations to our winners.

The voting process was based on the typical 4-point grading system but only work receiving a 3 or 4 were considered. Entries must have received a majority of our judges votes with at least one of the judges awarding the piece a top score of 4. To receive medals more than one judge had to award the entry a 4 with the best of show receiving a majority of 4 point votes.

Getting a medal in our show is never easy and there were quite a number of pieces that fell just shy of getting into the show. All in all the work entered this year was among the highest we've seen.

PROFESSIONAL SHOW NO. 7
The judges have voted and we're pleased to announce the winners of this year's ProShow. It's our largest show ever. Not only were there more entries, there were more winners and more medalists. And half of our winners were from outside the US making 3x3's ProShow truly international.

Getting a medal in our show is never easy but the quality of this year's entries resulted in far more winners being named by the judges. Just to get in the show you must receive a majority of votes from our nine judges. To receive a medal you must receive at least eight judge's votes and to receive the top awards you must receive all nine judge's votes.

You'll notice some very familiar names among our winners but also quite a few new faces made this year's cut. And in looking over the show there were very few weak pieces among the non-winners—the work was at it's highest level ever. Congratulations to all.
