Points Calculation Formula

The points calculation formula for the Australian Sailing Squadron Point Score is designed to reward sailors fairly based on their performance, the importance of the event, and their contribution to the team. Here's a breakdown of the formula and its components:

The Formula

Points = Event Placement Score × Event Multiplier × Performance Impact Factor (PIF)

This formula ensures that points are distributed fairly, taking into account the sailor's finishing position, the significance of the event, and their role on the boat.

Components of the Formula

  1. Event Placement Score:
    The Base Score is assigned based on your finishing position in the event. Eg. 1st Place = 100 Points, 2nd = 50 Points etc.
  2. Event Multiplier:
    Events are weighted differently based on their level or type to reflect their prestige and difficulty: Coastal, Medium, Long, and Extreme Offshore have multipliers ranging from 2.0× to 6.0× (with extra weighting for races over 1000nm).
  3. PIF:
    Each sailor's role on the boat contributes differently to the team's success. The Role Multiplier fairly adjusts scores based on these contributions, ensuring that all roles are valued. In addition the PIF equation included the complexity of the vessel and the number of crew and size of boat.

Why This Formula is Fair

  • Balanced for Team Dynamics: Recognizes and rewards contributions across all roles on the boat, ensuring that every team member has a fair chance to earn points.
  • Scales with Event Importance: Higher multipliers for more significant events encourage sailors to aim for challenging competitions.
  • Performance-Oriented: Rewards high placements, but participation at any level contributes to your overall score.
