The Rules

The open and female categories will be scored separately and will remain the same as in previous years. 50 points for first club finisher, 45 for second, 40 for third, 39 for fourth, 38 for fifth, 37 for sixth and so on plus points for age group finish position in the whole race. If you finish 1st in your triathlon age group you get 40 – 1 = 39 points. If you finish 2nd in your age group you get 40 -2 = 38 points and so on. If you are 40th or below in age group you get 1 point. Triathlon age groups are usually in 5 year bands but we will use the categories published in the official race results. For each member their 4 best scores from events will count. This scoring system deliberately favours participation, the more events you compete in the better chance you have of winning.
