woolamai_carnival_poster_smlThis year, the Club will running a Carnival over the Australia Day weekend that will include a range of 'fun' events and social activities as well as some of the traditional club championship events. (Saturday 23rd & Sunday 24th January 2010 - Tuesday 26th is a Public Holiday)

The new format is designed to encourage participation from all members, by providing support for those wishing to compete for the first time, as well as opportunities for the more experienced competitors to vie for the coveted title of Club Champion! This year the emphasis is on teams rather than individuals and those with no experience wishing to participate for the first time.

 

HOW IT WORKS

  1. Each patrol will be required to participate as a team with a minimum of four (4) patrolling members entered in each event. A member will gain a point for every event they participate in, with additional points awarded for individual placings in each event.
  2. The patrol whose members amass the highest points total will be crowned Carnival Champions.
  3. The points accumulated by each patrol over the weekend will also contribute to the ‘Best Patrol Award’, which is based on a patrols performance in all aspects of the club throughout the season.
  4. Finally, the individual Club Champions will be determined by those who amass the highest points total from those events marked with an asterisk.
