Rules and Scoring

The scoring is based on the Tour de France allocation of points as follows:

1st 302nd 273rd 254th 235th 216th 197th 178th 159th 1310th 11
11th 10  12th 913th 814th 715th 616th 517th 418th 319th 220th 1

The points are where members in their respective gender finish within the club for each race. Position is based on chip time. If chip time is not available gun time will be used.

The number of scoring races for members is half of the number of races in the intended Calendar plus an additional race. So in 2024 the best 5 out of 8 will count for each runner whether they did 6, 7 or 8 races. If the number of scoring races changes, Race Committee may alter how many races members may score.

Prizes are to be awarded for the top three men and women who score the most points. In addition there is to be a single prize for each vet’s category. The categories are MV40, MV50, MV60, MV70, MV80, etc… and FV40, FV50, FV60, FV70, FV80, etc… The category of the runner is determined by what age they are for the first race in the Calendar. If a vet is in the top three overall they receive a top three prize and the second vet in their category wins the vet’s prize. A point must be scored to qualify for a prize. In the event of a tie the winner is the person who has the most first places, then second and so on. The male and female winners will be declared ‘Club Champions’, and presented with the Westlake Trophy (scheduled for the competition in 2025) which is to be returned before the following year’s Awards Ceremony.

Note: The Race Committee reserve the right to amend the rules dependent on events included within the Championships and exercise discretion in the awarding of prizes.
