Scoring Rounds
---4-------8
---3-------7
---3-------6

so.. with there only being 7 events to start with.. does that mean it'll only be 3 to count?

why is the final so early next year? before BOC as well...

You will also note that March 4 clashes with the Welsh being held in North Wales. You wouldn't want to miss that

most likley reason is so they don't clash with exams! well most exams (including uni exams).

There is always the event the weekend before though, Redkite

[brooner]

am i being stupid or is that in fact more than 7 rounds?

[gowrie]

9 events, 7 weekends?

[HOCOLITE]

The final is not a round

[brooner]

The final is not a round

oops, yes, is it home time yet?

3 from 7 seems a bit few though to be honest

[RS]

They are packed in very tightly. Doesn't give you much chance to recover from an injury picked up. 3 consecutive weekends, 3 weekends off then 3 in a row. At least the final is not in exam period for the first time I can remember.

i'd noticed that and wasnt too sure about the planning as the welsh champs has been on the calendar for a year pretty much now.. so why pick the same weekend?
