Rules for the Pat Hooper Perpetual Cup Team Challenge
- The Pat Hooper Perpetual Cup is awarded to the most successful overall Club in all Team Competitions at the Annual Dublin Masters Cross Country Championships. It rewards and encourages both Team participation and success.
- Points are awarded to all Clubs finishing scoring teams across all 4 categories currently competed for, i.e., M35, M50, M65, F35, F50 and F65.
- Calculations are done based on the number of teams to finish in each category on the day. For example, if there are 12 finishing teams in the M35 section then the team that finishes 1st is awarded 12 points and the team finishing 12th is awarded 1 point.
- The team results across all categories are then added together. The overall winner is deemed to be the Club that has won the most points across all categories and is thus awarded the Pat Hooper Cup.
- In the event of a tie on points the Cup will be awarded to the Club with the most Team Victories on the day.
- In the event of a further tie, after the above tie, the winning Club will be deemed to be the one with the most finishers across all categories on the day.
Entry procedures
- Teams must be entered by 12.00 midnight, Wednesday 5th January 2022. Dates of Birth will determine the individual category each participant scores in.
- For team entries each entrant must enter their Club name and team category i.e., M35, M50, M65, F35, F50 or F65. This will allow for an athlete aged over 50 to score on an M35/F35 Club team. The same applies for the 50/65 Club team categories
- Club teams of up to 8 are allowed to register (Cost €60). Additional Club athletes can be entered on a second Club team or as Individuals, at the most beneficial cost. Any number of Individual Athletes can be entered at €10 each. Once their DOB/Club and Team category are entered, they can score as normal in the Individual and Team competitions i.e., the first 4 across the line score on the Club team (3 in the case of F50 and 65 and M65) and the first 3 in each Individual Category.
