Chris Mason Celebration League Points Update

Ahead of the 2019/20 Chris Mason Celebration League, which starts with this Sunday’s Kettering Archers Chris Mason Memorial Worcester Shoot, the points system has been revised slightly to award all archers for attending and shooting regardless of category. The additional points for placing 3rd, 2nd or 1st, will still only apply to those how have shot within category.

For clarity, shooting within category means that archers shoot the correct round and distance for their age-group and gender. A list of the outdoor rounds including age groups can be found here.

The points system is as follows:
– 3 points for attending, regardless of category
– 3 points for first, 2 points for second, 1 point for third (when 3 or more archers shooting in a bowstyle, within category)
– 2 points for first, 1 point for second (when only 2 archers are shooting in a bowstyle, within category)
– 1 point (when only 1 archer shooting in a bowstyle, within category)

The full rules for the league can be found here. Please contact the County Records Officer, Dean Edwards if you have any questions.
