Explanation
The English Indoor Bowling
Association launched a National Ranking list on 29th September 2000.
The Ranking list is based on a player’s performance in the Associations Championship events (Singles, Pairs, Triples,
Fours and the
Champion of Champions), the BIIBC Championships, and
International apearances. The championships for which points are awarded
are open to every member of a club affiliated to the Association on an equal
basis each year. The ranking takes into account a players performance
over a five year period (Junior International appearances over the last two
years only), this being the length of time over which selectors would judge
a players performance. Most recent performances will merit higher points
than those of previous years and the system calculations takes this into
account.
Calculation of a Players Ranking
Each player qualifying
for the final stages of the National Championships (Singles, Pairs, Triples
& Fours) will be awarded ONE POINT on reaching this stage (Last 32) and ONE
EXTRA POINT for each subsequent game won, a potential of six points for each
event. As from 2011-2012 the above will be counted from the (Last 16) to
coincide with the Ladies calculation.
In the Champion of Champions, ONE POINT will be awarded for
reaching the finals stages (Last 16) and ONE EXTRA POINT for each game won,
a potential of five points. In addition, each player will earn ONE POINT
on reaching the final of the British Isles Indoor Bowls Council
Championships in each event and ONE EXTRA POINT for winning a BIIBC title.
(excluding the U25 Championships)
Points are calculated on the
following basis: -
|
Championship Events |
Senior International
Appearances |
Junior International Appearances |
Latest year |
100% |
3 points
(one for each game played) |
1.5 points |
Previous year |
85% |
2 points |
1 point |
Two years previous |
65% |
1.5 points |
|
Three years previous |
40% |
1 point |
|
Four years previous |
15% |
0.5 points |
|
The Resultant Totals for each player are then multiplied by a factor
of 10.
It is anticipated that the existence of an English Ranking
List will generate interest both amongst players and within the press.
The Ranking list will be updated annually at the end of the Indoor
Season (May).
