OPEN Club Champion Determination Rules 2024

  • Championship Points awarded for each event are 1st=10, 2nd=7, 3rd=5, 4th=4, 5th=3, 6th=2, 7th=1.
  • Tied positions get the average of the tied position scores: i.e.  3 x equal 2nd  scores (7+5+4)/3 = 6 points each.  Rounded Up.
  • Five Events (GNOT, Morgans Swiss Pairs, Club Teams, Festival Sunday TBIB Swiss Teams and True Mixed Teams) score double points  i.e. 1st=20, 2nd=14, 3rd=10, 4th=8, 5th=6, 6th=4, 7th=2.
  • For both Pairs and Teams events, each pair/team member in the top 7 positions scores full CC points, irrespective of number of sessions played. Substitutes are considered to be members of the unit if they play at least 50% of the sessions, in which case they also earn full Championship Points. Otherwise substitutes score zero Championship points. A substitute can only score points from one Pair/Team (highest Championship Points score).
  • In small events Championship Points, starting with 10 for 1st, will be awarded to all place-getters, irrespective of the number of participants in the event.
  • The updated Club Championship Scores and Rankings will be available on the NSBC website.
  • The NSBC Manager's decision on Championship Point Scoring issues/appeals is final.
