kilpailusuoritusten

Kilpailusuoritus is a Finnish term used to describe a single act of performing in a competition. It covers performances in many kinds of contests, including sport, performing arts and other judged or timed events. A kilpailusuoritus is the actual result achieved by a participant during a given event and may be measured in different ways depending on the discipline.

In time-based and distance-based sports, the performance is expressed as time, distance or height. In track and field, a sprint time or a jump distance; in swimming, a time; in gymnastics or figure skating, scores assigned by judges. The term can also apply to scored performances in music, dance, or e-sports where the participant’s output is evaluated by criteria and sometimes judges.

Official competition results are normally compiled as a list of kilpailusuoritukset, each entry including athlete or participant, affiliation, event, measurement or score, and final standing or ranking. Additional data such as wind reading, scoring components, penalties, or deductions may be recorded as part of the performance record. The collection of kilpailusuoritukset enables ranking, qualification, record-keeping, statistics, and historical analysis. In Finnish, the nominative plural is kilpailusuoritukset, and the genitive plural is kilpailusuoritusten.

In Finnish sports and media usage, kilpailusuoritukset can refer to the performances of a specific athlete across events (kilpailusuoritukset in a season) or to the set of performances in a single competition. The term is closely related to, but distinct from, suoritus (a single performance), tulos (result), and kilpailu (competition).
