Gold Coast League Series 2008-09
The Gold Coast Club uses the WWSL handicap system for its League Series. The basic rules are,
Skiers are allocated a handicap by the
computer scoring system based on a formula that ensures that all skiers are
capable of winning on the day.
The following will help you
understand the score sheets below.
League
Division
“Pro”
means a skier had posted a score in the past 12 months that is equal to or
greater than 60% of the best skiers in the world in his or her division. This is
based on major world junior, open, and senior tournaments.
“Super”
is short for Super League which where skiers are running the full course, have
been awarded a handicap but have not obtained a Pro rating as described above.
“Qualifying”
is short for Qualifying League which is where skiers are running a mixture of
half and full course buoys and as yet have not been awarded a handicap.
W/card
In league skiing if a skier
misses a buoy they can have a second chance by using their wild card. If a skier
uses their wild card their final score is adjusted down by two buoys as a
penalty. In this column it will show either yes or no as to whether a wild card
was used or not.
Buoys QL
Qualifying League skier’s
scores are shown as a total of full and half buoys scored in their 4 passes.
Gross Score
This is the skiers score
compared to “Par” as in golf (Par being 6@13m)
If you look at the Oct
tournament you will see
Dayna’s score is 10, her
score of 2@14.25m is 10 buoys above Par.
Matt’s score is -8 his
score of 2@11.25 is 8 buoys below Par
Handicap
This is the skier’s
handicap as compared to Par which is worked out by the computer program.
Dayna’s handicap is 11
buoys
Matt’s handicap is -7.5
buoys
Net Score
Is calculated
as gross score minus handicap equals net score
Dayna’s score is gross of
10 minus handicap of 11 = net of 1 under Par
Matt’s score is
gross of -8 minus handicap of -7.5 = 0.5 under Par
Lowest score wins therefore Dayna wins by 0.5 of a bouy.
The computer program recalculates
the handicaps after each competition ready for the next month.
Points
The skier with the lowest
net score is the winner and gets 50 points 2nd place 49 and so on.
The skier’s top 4 monthly scores count towards the series.
Pro%
This is what the skiers score on the day is compared to the worlds best skiers in his or her division.
