LRRL TEAM SCORING SYSTEM – RULES

Men
For each club, the top 8 men score for the “A” team in a race. Points for the race are awarded in line with their finishing position.
E.g. if the top 8 men finish 3, 12, 26, 42, 55, 67, 89, 103 then in total 397 points are scored.

The scorers can be from any category – eg U20, Sen, V40, V50 etc.

The next 8 men will score for the club’s “B” team.
Teams are not picked, so it is possible for a man to score for the club’s “B” team in one race, and the “A” team in the next.

All of the team’s points are added up, and the lower the team score, the higher you finish on the day overall.
E.g. – a team score of 150 points is a better score than a team score of 250 points!

The teams are then sorted into their respective divisions to score accordingly for league points.

The league points are awarded as follows:-
Leagues with < 10 teams – 20, 17, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11 etc Leagues with > 10 teams – 25, 22, 20, 19, 18, 17, 16 etc

So if West End score 250 points in one race, and finish 3rd in Division 2 (with 8 teams), they will score 15 league points.

The teams competition is not split into Winter/Summer league, so the scores across the whole season count.
Two teams are promoted and relegated from each “A” league.

The “B” league is one big division, which is due to be split into Divisions 1, 2 and 3 for 2017, so watch this space!
