The point system for the qualifying matches above were voted on by
the NBRSA Board of Directors and are as follows.
For matches 1 thru 6 each competitor will be awarded one (1) point
for each competitor he/she beats in the LV and HV Grands up to a
maximum of sixty (60) points per grand in matches having at least
sixty one (61) competitors. Competitors finishing below 60th place
will receive zero (0) points. Should a match have fewer than sixty
one (61) competitors the actual amount of competitors beaten will be
used as the maximum points awarded. The competitors LV and HV
grand point totals will be added together to establish their awarded
points for that match.
For the NBRSA Nationals each competitor will be awarded one (1)
point for each competitor he/she beats in the LV and HV grands
regardless of the number of competitors. There are no point
restrictions for this match! The competitors LV and HV point totals
will be added together to establish their awarded points for the
match.
In all qualifying matches the number of competitors in each grand
shall be determined by the largest quantity of shooters to shoot at
least one (1) group in either yardage of that class. The logic used
here is not to take points away from any competitor because
shooters begin a yardage and do not complete it for whatever
reason. I/E The 2008 Cactus where many shooters began the 200 on
Sunday afternoon but with 30-40 mph winds dropped out significantly
reducing the formal grand totals.
Final qualifying point totals will be established by using each
competitors best three (3) of seven (7) qualifying match totals. Based
on this system attendance at the NBRSA Nationals will almost be
imperative. In case of a tie in the final point standings the competitor
accumulating the higher point totals at the Nationals will be awarded
the higher position.
