Points system:-

Points will be awarded to teams.

Schools will also receive points, equal to the teams points in proportion to the number of riders in the team.
EG if a team has, two from school A, one from school B, and one from C
then A gets half the points B and C both get 1/4 of the teams points.

If a grade is split into A and B grades the B grade will earn lesser points.
The preferance is that A grade will contain 4 teams from 4 different schools.

Team events will earn greater points
