Club RESTRICTED Champion Determination Rules 2025

 

  1. All players entered in a NSBC RESTRICTED Championship event (or an OPEN event where a RESTRICTED category is defined) are eligible to score Club RESTRICTED Championship (CRC) Points. This includes members and visitors. However, only points scored as an NSBC member count towards determining the eventual Club RESTRICTED Champion.
  2. All players in RESTRICTED events must have fewer than 300 Master Points.  A player who reaches 300 masterpoints during the year will no longer be eligible to play in RESTRICTED sections of any future events and will no longer receive further Club RESTRICTED Championship (CRC) points.
  3. Players in RESTRICTED events or who finish in first 7 places in a RESTRICTED category, are eligible to score CRC points, provided they have fewer than 300 Master Points.
  4. Provided there are 3 or more RESTRICTED contestants, CRC Points awarded for each event are 1st=10, 2nd=7, 3rd=5, 4th=4, 5th=3, 6th=2, 7th=1. If fewer than 3, the points are 5,4.
  5. 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.
  6. Four Events (Club Pairs, Morgans Swiss Paris, Festival Pairs and Festival Teams ) score double points  i.e. 1st=20, then 14, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2. Or 10, 8 if fewer than 3 contestants.
  7. For both Pairs and Teams events, each pair/team member in the top 7 positions scores full CRC points, irrespective of number of sessions played.
  8. Substitutes score zero Championship points.
  9. The updated CRC Scores and Rankings will be made available on the NSBC website.
  10. The NSBC Manager's decision on any CRC Scoring issues / appeals is final.
