The Points

HOW DOES THE POINT SYSTEM WORK?

Points are allocated for participation and performance as such:

Participation Points

• 5% of club members race and finish = 15 participation points
• 10% of club members race and finish = 30 participation points
• 20% of club members race and finish = 45 participation points

Participation Point Rules

• A clubs membership number is calculated as the number of members aged 12+ from the end of the May 31 of the previous season.
• If 5%, 10% or 20% of a clubs membership is not a whole number, the required participant amount is rounded to the nearest whole number e.g 10% of a 64 member club = 6.4 members – therefore the club requires 6 members to race and finish for 6 points. 10% of a 67 member club = 6.7 members – therefore the club requires 7 members to race and finish for 6 points.
• Smaller clubs with less than 20 members will be measured for participation points as if they are a club of 20 members.
• If a clubs required participation is calculated as one member for  both 5% and 10%, an extra required participant is added to the 10% requirement, meaning they would need two participants.
• Athletes who compete at two distances over an event weekend e.g. Sprint Duathlon on Saturday, Standard Triathlon on Sunday will count twice towards their Clubs Participation Point tally.

Performance points

*Points will be allocated to the top 10 from each age group division.

*Athletes who compete at two distances over an event weekend e.g. Sprint Duathlon on Saturday, Standard Triathlon on Sunday, can score Performance Points in both.

Max Out

Clubs can earn a maximum of 200 points at each event of the Regional Interclub Series.

This point equalisation strategy will be implemented to allow clubs of varying sizes to compete against each other.
