These will be awarded points equal to one more than the number of boats entered in that race. NCS stands for sailed but did not cross the start line. These will be awarded points equal to one more than the number of boats entered in their class on the day. DNS stands for did not start and denotes Sailors who have started at least one race in the series of TT events but not sailed at this particular event. These will be awarded one point for each boat in their category (i.e. 2.3 or 303 one person, 303 two person )in the TT series up to and including the Tideway event (5th Sept) plus 1 extra point.

Each Sailors best five results count. other results are discarded / excluded. ACA(UK) Northern and Southern Championships Mini Series Revamped Northern and Southern Championships for 2010 TT Series For 2010 the groupings are as follows: Access Travellers Trophy 2010 Ben Ainslie Team Trophy The formula for calculating points for the team trophy award is as follows: In order to make the team's contribution more representative of their overall ability and effort we will be taking into account their average performance by totaling each sailors total points in their best Five races in the series and dividing this by the total number of boats in their class. we will use this figure to calculate the team event results. The team with the lowest total points for their three sailors will win. The formular will be:
1. the combination lasts the whole year, and that 2. you declare the combination before the forth race of this season, and that 3. there be a maximum of two clubs that could combine. and neither of these clubs have more than three sailors in the TT series. A team therefore is made up of each Clubs or declared teams best three sailors/boats overall series results, calculated according to the Team method laid out above, across the following classes:
