About these events

Event types the existing NZRA Championships programme of events has been translated to the proposed points-based system with event status calculated as follows:

• Novice => novice (0P)
• Club => senior-two (_P)
• Senior => senior-one (_P)
• Premier => elite (_P)
• Age-group:
  under-[age] => senior-[age]

Points the points for points-based events are indicated in brackets in the event title. The format is ( Y P ), where:

• Y is maximum total points for the crew.

A crew's points are calculated by reference to the points held by each athlete in the crew. See the other demonstration points regatta for an expanded look at points.

Athletes have separate points for sweep oar and sculling events. Points range from 0 to 12.

Examples

• Event 11: womens elite (24P) 2X. This event has a crew maximum of 24 points. There is effectively no athlete minimum or maximum. Any athlete (0-12 points) can be entered in the crew. Valid crews include (0+0=>0),(6+6+>12),(10+4=>14),(12+12=>24).
• Event 31: mens senior-two (10P) 2X. There is no athlete minimum but there is an effective athlete maximum of 10 points. The average athlete points is 5 (10/2) so any crew member with more than 5 points must be balanced by another crew member with less than 5 points. Valid crews include (0+0=>0),(5+5=>10),(6+4=>10),(0+10=>10). However, (0+12=>12) would be invalid due to too many points.
