SCORING NOTES

We do NOT use the age group results from an individual race to issue our points. Raw results are used and then re-sorted to fit our criteria. Thus for some races there may be differences between age group awards and our points.

Each race is conducted on its own under their guidelines, direction and rules. Results are submitted and tabulated as soon as possible after each event and presented on the JOSC Race Series site.
