Saturday Morning Races and Schedule

Hi Fellow Busters,

Starting this Saturday 3rd August we will introduce a club point scoring system for time trial events, those being 200m sprints, 4k or 8k distance.
The 200m event will include 1 race downstream and 1 race upstream (like we normally do). Depending on numbers we will have a series of heats in each direction. Individual times will be recorded for both directions. We will take an average of these times to record PBs' and award points.
The 4k and 8k  time trial will just be a mass start and times recorded as normal.
For each event a competitor will be awarded either of the below –

  • 3 points for participating or achieving less than 85% of their PB.
  • 6 points for being within 85% of their PB.
  • 9 points for exceeding their PB.
  • 0 points for non attendants.
  • 6 points for non attendants who are competing at other kayak or surf events on the day. They have to let us know.

Starting this Saturday all competitors will receive 6 points so we establish PBs'

We need all competitors at the containers by 8.00 am. 

First event at 8.20 am sharp. – 200m at southern start line.

I would expect that we wrap up the mornings by 9.30 -10.00 am at the very latest.
Any questions please let me know.
Regards
Luke Hagan.
