The Series

​​

Your overall position in each race will be transferred to points and added to the series league table.  The series winner will be the competitor with the lowest score after 5 events.  Your best 4 results will be used to calculate the series winner, so to be eligible for the overall series prize you will of course need to compete in at least 4 of the events.  Series prizes will be awarded to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd male and female overall and also for each age category.  The series prizes will be awarded at the prize giving of the final event.  The series league table will be published on this page as soon as each event is complete.
