POINTS SERIES
We will be having
a season long point series of races again this year. Your time will be adjusted
according to the age related handicapping tables and the fastest male and
female skier will receive 100 points. Each skier will receive points according
to the percentage his/her age adjusted time is behind the fastest skier.
1. We will count the 5 best age adjusted races
for each skier. Exception – skiers who reside in the Lake Superior Division
will count their 4 best races.
2. A skier must include at least 2 races from
the Ontario Masters Championships in Hepworth (Owen Sound), Jan. 29 - 31.
3. A skier must be
a member of the Ontario Masters Cross Country Ski Association at the time of the
event to have his/her points tabulated for the event. An exception will be made
for a skier who has never been a previous member of the association.
