There will be separate leagues for each equipment class and archers may shoot in more than one class. The organiser will allocate the pairs to divisions in the respective leagues based on the Novemberscores ranking.
Each division will have no more than six pairs. The Organiser reserves the right to reallocate members if their results indicate that they are clearly in the wrong division. In these circumstances points will be recalculated for members in the divisions affected.

November’s scores should be sent using the attached form to the Organiser arriving no later than the 10th December. Subsequent scores can be submitted to the Organiser by email or post arriving within 7 days of the end of the preceding month, if no scores are received by the 10th then it will be taken the match was not shot.
If an archer was unable to record a score, the result sheet should still be returned to the Organiser indicating no score.
RESULTS
The Organiser will award 1 point for the highest scoring pair in the division, 2 points for the second etc. If any pairs have the same score, the pair with the most hits will be placed above the other pair. If all have equalhitsthenpoints will be decided on number of gold’s. If all pairs have the same number of gold’s, each pair will get the same points for the higher place.
