    The competition took place in forms recorded by the competitors according to pre-prescribed rules in the home environment or home gym, and some also outside, on the playground or in the garden. The recordings prepared in this way were uploaded to the ITFPlay platform, where the judges evaluated them and determined the best competitors. Numerous previous virtual meetings of the organizers, instructors and judges made the competition as smooth, transparent and fair as possible, and they clearly defined the rules of the competition and judging. The competition was broadcast live on the YouTube channel ITFPlay,  where recordings of the match, by individual rings and categories, are also available after the end of the competition.
