Coach s Corner Intramural Sports Points Championship Point Allotment Guide This document is intended to explain how points are awarded to teams and individuals competing for the Coach s Corner Intramural Sports Points Championship. A list of maximum and minimum points available per sport can be found at the end of this document. Throughout the academic year teams will compete in one of five divisions (Men s, Women s, Co- Rec, Fraternity, or Sorority) for the Coach s Corner Intramural Sports Points Championship. Each team that registers in an event will be awarded points based on how well it finishes. In order to be counted for the year-long competition, teams must keep the exact same team name for each event throughout the year. Greek organizations must use their full organization names; nicknames or English initials will not be counted for Greek points. For all team sports and events in which the number of team members is greater than two, only one team per organization is eligible for points. In all singles and doubles events, organizations are encouraged to have multiple individuals/teams participate. However, only the top two finishing teams representing each organization will be counted for points. If multiple teams wish to compete in the same event for the same organization, each team must be named with the organization name followed by a letter differentiating it from the other team(s) representing the parent organization. For example, Team Iowa can have Team Iowa A, Team Iowa B, and Team Iowa C entered in the same doubles event. The combined points earned by the two best finishing teams between Team Iowa A, Team Iowa B, and Team Iowa C will be added to Team Iowa s Coach s Corner Intramural Sports Points Championship point total for that event. The same process will take place in singles events, but individuals must designate their team affiliations before the event begins. For a doubles team to be counted for Co-Rec points, at least one male and one female must be competing for that team at all times; Co-Rec points cannot be earned in singles events. Greek organizations may compete in Co-Rec divisions and earn points for their individual organizations. In order to receive points, a Co-Rec team must be made of members from one fraternity and one sorority and the team name must be each Greek organization s name separated with a /. For example: Pi Kappa Alpha/Gamma Phi Beta. Each competing organization will receive half of the points they earn during Co-Rec competition to be added to their Fraternity or Sorority Coach s Corner Points Championship points total. For a Co-Rec team to accrue points in an Open event, a designated number of males and females must be competing at all times. A list of the designated number of required males and females per sport is included later in this document. If a team has members of each gender participating, but are not able to satisfy the designated requirement competing at all times, it will be counted for Men s points.
League/Pool Play Followed By Single Elimination Playoff Tournament: For all sports with a regular season or pool play followed by a playoff tournament, the following will be used to issue points to teams: Points will be awarded based on how far a team makes it in the playoff bracket. Maximum points will be awarded to the team that wins the championship. Minimum points will be given to all teams that participated in the B league, if offered for that sport. The next lowest amount of points will be awarded to teams in the A league that failed to qualify for playoffs. The remaining points will be given out in equal increments depending on how many rounds the bracket contains. Any team that forfeits its last scheduled game will not be eligible for points. To determine the increment used for awarding points, the difference between the maximum and minimum points available for the sport will be divided by one more than the total number of rounds in the playoff tournament. If there are A and B leagues, the difference will be divided by two more than the total number of rounds in the playoff tournament. For example: If the maximum number of points available for Sport A is 125 and the minimum is 25 the difference is 100. If the playoffs contain 3 rounds and there are no A or B leagues, the increment will be 25. 100/(3+1)=25. See below: 1 st Round 2 nd Round Playoff Bracket 2 nd Round 1 st Round Champion Runner-up Farthest round reached BWW Points Champion 125 Runnerup 100 2 nd Round 75 1 st Round 50 No playoffs* 25
Another example: If the maximum number of points available for Sport A is 125 and the minimum is 25 the difference is 100. If the playoffs contain 3 rounds and there are A or B leagues, the increment will be 20. 100/(3+2)=20. See below: 1 st Round 2 nd Round Playoff Bracket 2 nd Round 1 st Round Tournament Not Preceded by League or Pool Play: Farthest round reached If an event does not have league or pool play prior to the tournament, points will be assessed the following way: Points will be awarded for how far a team advances in the bracket. Maximum points will be awarded to the team that wins the championship. Minimum points will be given to all teams that played but lost in the first round. The remaining points will be given out in equal increments, depending on how many rounds the bracket contains. Teams forfeiting during the tournament are not eligible for points To determine the point increment level, the difference between the maximum and minimum points available for the event will be divided by total number of rounds in the tournament. Using the example below: If the playoffs contain 3 rounds the increment will be 33.3. 100/(3)=33.3. 1 st Round 2 nd Round Champion Runner-up Event Bracket 2 nd Round 1 st Round Champion Runner-up BWW Points A League No Playoffs 45 B League 25 Farthest round reached BWW Points Champion 125 Runnerup 105 2 nd Round 85 1 st Round 65 Champion 125 Runnerup 92** 2 nd Round 58** 1 st Round 25 **All points will be rounded to the nearest whole number.
Single or Multiple Day Event Resulting in a Champion With No Head-to-Head Elimination Component: In events in which no playoff tournament leads to a champion being crowned, the following criteria will be used: At the completion of the event, participants/teams will be ordered from highest to lowest based on how well they did in the competition. The point increment value will be determined by taking the difference of the maximum and minimum points available for that event, divided by one less than the total number of participants or teams. For example: If there are 21 participants in a competition for which the maximum possible points awarded is 60 and the minimum possible is 20 points, the point increment will be 2. The difference between the maximum and minimum available is 40, and the total participants minus 1 is 20, therefore 40/20=2. All participants that are tied will receive points based on the place for which they are tied. For example, if there are 3 participants/teams tied for 7 th place, they all receive 7 th place points. The next level of points awarded will be 10 th place points because there are no points given for 8 th and 9 th place, as they were tied with 7 th place. See example below: Points Awarded for Non-Bracketed Event: NO TIES Points for results when ties exist in the competition Place Points Awarded Place Points Awarded 1 60 1 60 2 58 2 58 3 56 3 56 4 54 4 54 5 52 5 52 6 50 6 50 7 48 7 48 8 46 7 48 9 44 7 48 10 42 10 42 11 40 11 40 12 38 12 38 13 36 12 38 14 34 14 34 15 32 15 32 16 30 15 32 17 28 15 32 18 26 15 32 19 24 19 24 20 22 20 22 21 20 21 20 Denotes a Tie
