2. There is some recognition to encourage more club members to take part.
Points based on average of time of qualifying club members in each course.
1st = 7 points
2nd = 5 points
3rd = 2 points
No entries = Take the next available points i.e. If the 2 other clubs have members on the course then take 3rd = 2 points
If there are more than 3 entries from a club in any course, multiply the points for that course by 1.5
