Club Of The Month Awards - clarification of points system

Wed 28th September 2016 | Announcements
By Ian Templeman

In advance of the announcement of the latest Club of the Month award winners later this week, we publish below a reminder of how the results are calculated.

The Club of the Month awards for both divisions are calculated using a points system for each game played by a club during the month, and is as follows.

Away win against a team from a higher division – 6 points
Home win against a team from a higher division – 5 points
Away draw against a team from a higher division – 3 points
Home draw against a team from a higher division – 2 points
Away defeat against a team from a higher division – 0 points
Home defeat against a team from a higher division – 0 points
 
Away win against a team from the same division – 4 points
Home win against a team from the same division – 3 points
Away draw against a team from the same division – 2 points
Home draw against a team from the same division – 1 point
Away defeat against a team from the same division – 0 points
Home defeat against a team from the same division – minus 1 point
 
Away win against a team from a lower division – 3 points
Home win against a team from a lower division – 2 points
Away draw against a team from a lower division – 1 point
Home draw against a team from a lower division – minus 1 point
Away defeat against a team from a lower division – minus 1 point
Home defeat against a team from a lower division – minus 2 points

When cup ties end in a draw and are decided on a penalty shoot out, the result used in the calculations will be the drawn game - a penalty shoot out win or defeat will not be used as a win or defeat in the calculations.

Once the points total has been accumulated, the total is divided by the number of games to arrive at the final figure used to identify the winner. 

A club must play a minimum of three games during a month to qualify for the award.

In the event that there is a tie between clubs, the final decision regarding the award shall be at the discretion of the League Management Committee. 

The above criteria was last confirmed by the League Management Committee at their meeting held on 10th September 2014, and circulated to all Member Clubs in the minutes of that meeting.
