Series Points System

Competitors (who are Sports Climbing SA members) will earn points towards the SA Climbing Series at all the events listed in the calendar above.  Points will be allocated on your outright finish position, with Open competitors ranked first, followed by all other competitors (ie. Intermediate, Masters and Juniors).  There will be separate Male and Female rankings.  Points for each finish position are:

Place	Points		Place	Points		Place	Points
1	100		16	30		31	15
2	80		17	29		32	14
3	65		18	28		33	13
4	55		19	27		34	12
5	51		20	26		35	11
6	47		21	25		36	10
7	44		22	24		37	9
8	41		23	23		38	8
9	38		24	22		39	7
10	36		25	21		40	6
11	35		26	20		41	5
12	34		27	19		42	4
13	33		28	18		43	3
14	32		29	17		44	2
15	31		30	16		45+	1

 
Your best 7 results count towards your Series points (so you can drop 2 Rounds).

The above system allows competitors to move up from Junior, Intermediate or Masters into Open and they keep the points they have earned so far.  However, a masters competitor will NOT earn points towards the Masters Series Category for an event if they enter Open for that event.  This also applies for Juniors and Intermediates.

There will be Open, Masters, Junior and Intermediate category Series awards at the end of the year.

Master and Juniors wanting to qualify for the Nationals will need to qualify in the category they are qualify for at the State Titles event.  So for example, some Masters competitors may enter the Open category for some events, but they will enter Masters in order to qualify for the Masters category at the Nationals.
