Rules
All Surrey affiliated clubs are welcome to take part in the Road League.
The League consists of seven races and there are separate competitions
for men's and women's teams, senior men and women, men and women over 35, men and women over 45, men and women over 55 and men and women over 65.
Entry to the League is free of charge but all runners must enter the races as normal and pay the organisers' entry fees.
Team Competitions
The first four finishers (men) or three finishers (women) from each
competing club will comprise the scoring team, and the sum of their
finishing positions will form their team score. In the event of a
tie, the relative position of the last scorer will be the decider.
League points will be scored according to the number of clubs entered.
For example, if 30 clubs are taking part, the winning club in each
race will score 30 points, second will score 29 and so on.
If any competing clubs have fewer than four runners (men) or three
runners (women) in any race, their team score will still be the sum
of their runners' finishing positions. For League points, clubs with
three runners will be ranked below all those with four, clubs with
two runners will be ranked below all those with three and clubs with
one runner will be ranked below all those with two. If a club has
no runners in any race, they will score no League points for that
race.
The League will be decided on each club's best four scores from the
seven races. In the event of a tie, the best five races will be taken
into consideration, and if there is still a tie, the best six races will be taken into consideration. If there
is still a tie, then the total team points in all seven races will decide.
Individual Competitions
All runners from clubs taking part in the League will earn an individual score in one of the age categories.
The first finisher in each category will score one point, second two
points and so on. The League will be decided on each runner's best
four scores from the seven races. In the event of a tie, the best five races will be taken
into consideration, and if there is still a tie, the best six races will be taken into consideration. If there
is still a tie, then the total points in all seven races will decide. If in any category no runner competes in four races,
then the best three will be taken, and so on.
The age group into which an athlete falls in the first League race in which he or she competes will determine his or her age group for the season.
Eligibility
All members of Surrey-affiliated clubs are eligible for the League. Individual Surrey qualification is not required. Second-claim members may compete provided that their first-claim club is not in the League.
Second-claim members must enter in the name of their first claim club.
All second-claimers must be declared to the League Secretary before
the first fixture.
Entry
All Surrey-affiliated clubs should be contacted by e-mail prior to the first fixture. Any club not contacted should e-mail the League Secretary. A full list of competing clubs will be posted on this site.
