PLAYER OF THE YEAR

Player of the Year 2016 – 2017

1.     There are 8 rounds in the Player of the Year Competition for the 2016 – 2017 season.
2.     To be eligible for the competition you must have played in at least 6 rounds.  If you were stand-by, then you must have played in at least 5 rounds.
3.     All 8 rounds will be scored by Match Points.
4.     The points awarded for each round are:
1st = 16, 2nd = 13, 3rd = 10, 4th = 7, 5th = 6, 6th = 5, 7th = 4, 8th = 3, 9th = 2 and 10th = 1.
5.     You must play with a different partner each night.  This rule does not apply to a round you are playing as a stand-by.
6.     The winner is the person with the highest average points of 6 best results.  For a stand-by (either paired or unpaired), points are averaged over best 5 results.
7.     Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.
8.      In the event of a tie for a place:

  • If only one player was a stand-by (either paired or unpaired), then that person wins the tie-break
  • If both players were stand-byes, then an unpaired stand-by wins the tie-break
  • If this doesn't resolve the tie-break, then the player with the greater number of 1st places wins the tie-break
  • If this doesn't resolve the tie-break, then the player with the greater number of 2nd places wins the tie-break and so on.
