Point System
Points in wrestling are awarded from the values of one to five in both take-downs and par terre. You also earn points if your opponents get a penalty.
Take-down
One point: When you take your opponent down to their side or their stomach, where their back is not exposed to the mat, is a one point take-down.
Three points: A three point take-down is a short amplitude take-down that land the opponent in a danger position on their back.
Five points: A five point take down is a grande amplitude throw, in which the opponents feet go over their head into a direct and immediate danger position.

Par Terre
One point: One point in wrestling is awarded if you get behind the opponent in par terre (they should have at least three parts of their body touching the mat including a knee) or you could score one point by pushing them out of bounds. One point is also awarded if your opponent refuses to start.
Two points: Two points are awarded if there is a reversal when one wrestler gains control from a defensive position. Exposure (where the opponents back is exposed to the mat) will also earn you two points. Moves like the gut wrench, the cross ankle, and tilts past 90 degrees are worth two.
