MORE ABOUT COLLECTING POINTS TO BECOME TOP DOG
A Leaderboard will be posted the week after every tournament to show each person’s season points. You get points just for playing and more depending on placement within your level.
~
You can collect points for:
- 7 TopDog Tournaments by Tonic Adventures + Cambie Sports (June 1, June 23, July 7, July 21, August 10, August 18, September 1st)
- 3 Cambie Sports Special Events: May Days on May 25th, Top Gun June 9 and Salmonfest July 1st
~
Points will be allocated as follows for EVERY division (B, A, AA, AAA, Open) - keep in mind in big tournaments that there may be multiple pools in each DIVISION and so winning Top Pool of A OR winning 3rd level Pool of A will be assigned points accordingly.
- 1st = 9 point, 2nd = 7 points, 3rd = 5 points, 4th = 3 points, 5th = 2 points, 6th = 1 point.
- You get 0-1 bonus points if you play B, you get 1-4 bonus points if you play A, you get 4-7 bonus points if you play AA, you get 7-9 for AAA and you get 9-11 for OPEN - The range is to account for more than one pool per division. Bonus points are to motivate people to play in a higher division/pool and not sandbag, as well as it means your seeding and not only playoffs impact your points!
~
Each tournament is worth the same amount of points and you do not have to play every tournament - it simply gives you more chances to collect points.
~
After the 10 tournaments, the top 3 individuals with the most points of every division (B, A, AA, AAA, Open) get bragging rights of being crowned top dogs and underdogs of 2024 - PLUS we give away $875 plus:
• 1st gets $100 cash + extra prize + GOLD MEDAL
• 2nd get $50 cash + extra prize + SILVER MEDAL
• 3rd gets $25 cash + extra prize + BRONZE MEDAL
~
To WIN a division you must have played the majority in that division. Last year AAA/Open and A/B were combined since there was not a clear winner seperating those divisions as players consistently went back and forth between the two levels which simply means that the competition was better.
~
The prizes are still being determined this year.
~
Prizing will be awarded after EACH tournament and the league - then the TOP DOG money and prizing will be awarded at September 1st tournament. Last year - the final tournament influenced the winners and the race was tight!
~
For ties they will be determined by: (1) to who played the greater number at a higher level if they are on the cusp between levels; (2) Who played a greater number of events.
