2025 Winter Guard Score Prediction Machine

The embedded web app on the bottom of this page generates predicted scores for the 2025 WGI World Championships using real or hypothetical scores from regionals earlier in the season. After entering information in the field and clicking "Predict Final Score", the app will generate the guard's predicted final score at World Championships as well as the predicted probability that they will advance to finals in their class.

IMPORTANT: To generate a prediction, you will need a real or hypothetical score that occurred at a regional in 2025 as well as the following information:

• The class the guard is currently competing in during the 2025 season

• The date that the score occurred - enter this by selecting a show week with the given dates

• The show round (prelims or finals) that the score occurred in

• The guard's subtotal score (before penalties) OR the total scores in each of the four captions

  • Entering caption scores is optional but highly encouraged to improve prediction accuracy

  • If needed, caption scores can be found on the Recaps page on our 2025 Score Hub

• The class the guard competed in during the 2024 season (if the guard did not compete last year, use their 2025 class)

• Answer yes/no if the guard attended the 2024 WGI World Championships. If yes, enter the furthest round they competed in (prelims, semifinals, finals), their final score from the furthest round they competed in, and their class OVERALL placement in the furthest round they competed in.

  • If needed, scores and overall ranks can be found in our WGI Historic Score Hub
