Scoring Method

LCSD Cup

Introduction | Scoring Method

 

5. Scoring Method:

The LCSD Cup rankings in each division (i.e. Primary School Boys’, Primary School Girls’, Secondary School Boys’ and Secondary School Girls’) is determined by each school’s cumulative points (including ranking and participation points earned in that division from all scoring events.

Ranking points

  • For calculation of school rankings in individual scoring events, please refer to Annex.
  • Schools that do to advance to the knockout stage will not be awarded any ranking points.
  • If a team forfeits or is disqualified, it will not receive any ranking points.
  • If fewer than four schools participate in an event, the results will not count towards the LCSD Cup standings.
  • For each scoring event, schools will be awarded the following points according to their rankings in the four divisions:
Place (Note 1)1st2nd3rd4th5th6th7th8th
Points Awarded108765432
Points Awarded (Note 2)108763.53.53.53.5

Notes:

(1)In the event of a tie in rankings, the tied schools will be awarded equal points for that position, and the subsequent rank will be left vacant.
(2)For competition where no classification matches are held for the 5th to 8th places, schools that finish between 5th and 8th will each be awarded 3.5 points.

Participation points

  • Schools will be awarded 1 participation point for each scoring event they take part in, with a maximum of 1 point for each division.
  • If a team forfeits or is disqualified, it will not receive any participation points.

Ranking of the LCSD Cup

  • Schools will be ranked based on the aggregate of their ranking and participation points from all scoring events. The top four schools in each division will be awarded the champion, first runner-up, second runner-up and third runner-up respectively.
  • In the event of a tie in cumulative points in a division, the rankings will be determined by the number of first-place finishes the tied schools achieve in that specific division, with the school achieving more first-place finishes ranked higher. If still tied, the number of second-place finishes will be considered, and so on.
6. Remarks:
  • Winning schools will be informed separately in writing.
  • The LCSD reserves the right to publish the results of the competition.
  • The LCSD will take photographs/videos/audios during the prize presentation ceremony, and the LCSD reserves the right to display/publish photos or video clips of the event on the Internet, at LCSD venues, on the Organiser’s dedicated website, in publications and through other publicity channels for promotional and record-keeping purposes.
