SELOC Club League 2020

These were the pre-lockdown scores, unfortunately we have not been able to do much more and all the events we had planned for the calendar have been cancelled.

What should we do with this? The options are
A) – to wipe the slate clean and start again as soon as we are able
or
B) – Carry these results into next years Club League

Let us know your thoughts…..

Principles:

General

The league will run throughout the year with Champions to be declared at the Christmas event. Participation is limited to SELOC club members of all age categories

There are 4 SELOC categories of event:

Classic – daylight forest or moorland, long or middle-distance
Urban or Sprint – including park
Street – SROC League or similar format
Other – includes night, score, holiday and ultra-long events

Scoring

Each participant’s best 6 scores will count toward the rankings
- these must include scores from at least 2 of the categories
Ranking is by lowest totals
- for this purpose, a score of 100 applies for each event that a participating member is short of the required 6
The scoring system has been revised for this year and is now as follows:
- For each event, your score is your finishing position on the Course you ran as a percentage of Competitive Starters recorded in the results
- percentages are rounded down except that 1.0 is the lowest score that can awarded (but note that you would have to be 1^st in a field of over 100 (or top 2 in over 200…), to beat that)
- for the avoidance of doubt, Mispunches, Non-finishers and Disqualifications are included in the numbers for event results, but Non-starters and Non-competitive runs are excluded
Worked example: you run a course with pre-entries of 35;
- of these 5 do not start (= 30 start),
- 4 mispunch,
- 3 run non-competitively,
- 2 retire and do not finish
- 1 is disqualified for crossing out-of-bounds
- the number of Competitive Starters is 35 – 5 – 3 = 27
- you finish 8^th, giving your points = 8*100/27 = 29.63, rounded down to 29
