NYSSRA-Nordic points = participation points + age class placing + overall placing<\/p>\n

Participation<\/em>: NYSSRA-Nordic members will receive 5 points for each sanctioned race completed. (Non-members are not issued participation points)<\/p>\n

U16 and younger skiers may<\/strong> displace older skiers in overall results but are not scored against older skiers i.e:When a U14 skier finishes 8th overall ( but is the first U16 finisher), in a mass start, and a M6 skier finishes 9th place overall, in scoring the M6 Skier is scored for 9th place overall, while the U14 skier receives 1st overall since the older skiers do are not scored in the U16 race).<\/p>\n

NYSSRA-NORDIC Cross Country Point Series<\/strong><\/p>\n

To encourage participation by individuals in NYSSRA-Nordic sanctioned events, NYSSRA Nordic sponsors a season-long points series. Races must be sanctioned by a sanctioned\u00a0club\/organization with NYSSRA \u00a0before the season {some special consideration for weather related issues can be given}. For late sanctioned or early season races, at least a week\u2019s notice is required to get sanctioned. Unsanctioned events are not part of the NYSSRA Points series.<\/span><\/p>\n

Racers of all age classes will score points during sanctioned races, with those accumulating the most points in each age group over the course of the season will win points series awards, and be officially recognized as NYSSRA-Nordic\u2019s New York State Nordic skiing points series champions.<\/p>\n

Racers\u2019 points are totaled after each race, and accumulate during the season. All races in which points are scored count towards a racer\u2019s season total.<\/p>\n

Points standings will be maintained and updated by the Points Committee Chairman (or their chosen assistant) and posted on the NYSSRA-Nordic website www.nyssranordic.org<\/p>\n

Awards for the overall champion of each age class (male and female U16, U18, U20, Senior, M1, M2\u2026M12) will be presented following the NYSSRA-Nordic Champions Cup race. Awards will be based on total accumulated points throughout the current NYSSRA-Nordic racing season. \u00a0In addition, additional skiers who score in the top 30 overall points (red group) will also\u00a0receive\u00a0an award, regardless of age-class.<\/p>\n

To be eligible for NYSSRA Points Series awards, racers must complete two NYSSRA sanctioned races. In addition, racers must enter and complete the NYSSRA Champions Cup Distance race.<\/p>\n

All racers are scored based on finish. (non-nyssra members do not score participation points). Racers must be members prior to the start of the race in order to score participation points during that race. Racers who join NYSSRA after the race will be able to count their race points, but will not be awarded participation points.<\/p>\n
