2019 Comeragh League Races Rule Change
In an effort to meet the additional marshalling requirements imposed by Gardai all Comeragh Riders are expected to marshal 2 league races per season. In order to eliminate the points disadvantage associated with this requirement the following applies to this and future editions of the league:
- All Comeragh riders are expected to marshal 2 league races per season
- Comeragh rider may arrange alternative cover for 1 of these nights if arranged BY THE RIDER in advance with marshal coordinator
- For each league race that a Comeragh rider marshals (Up max 2 races) they will be awarded the average points they achieved in the league races they did actually ride
- Marshall points will be allocated after final league race based on average race points over entire league
- Points to be rounded to the nearest whole number for each marshaling night >/= 0.5 = rounded up nearest whole number, < 0.5 rounded down to nearest whole number. In event of a tie the un-rounded number shall apply
- Marshaling schedule posted here
EXAMPLE
- Comeragh Rider rides 4 races over entire league and scores 20 points. Average (20 points ÷ 4 races) = 5 points
- Same Comeragh Rider Marshals 1 race. Therefore total points = 20 from races + 5 for marshalling night = 25 points total
- Points awarded over 5 races in this instance
- Same scenario, but rider marshals 2 nights then its 20 + 5 + 5 = 30 points total
