Our leaderboard system

Points system in the pub

Points are awarded in the pub using a bonus system depending on how many people play in the tournament which keeps things fair between small and large venues.

1st place 125 points + bonus
2nd place 100 points + bonus
3rd place 75 points + bonus
4th place 50 points + bonus
5th place 40 points + bonus
6th place 30 points + bonus
7th place 20 points + bonus
8th place 10 points + bonus
9th to 16th place ½ bonus (minimum of 10 points)
17th onwards 10 points (no bonus)

The amount of bonus points is equal to the number of players in the tournament.

Quarterly Final Qualification

We operate a three tier leaderboard system that encourages players to return to your venue week after week and keeps things fair for all.

Venue Leaderboard

Each venue has its own leaderboard which only shows points earned at that venue. The top 5 players from each venue qualify through to the Quarterly Finals, regardless of total player numbers.

Benefit - You can always be assured that several of your best players will qualify, guaranteeing that your top players will not have to go to the finals alone.

National Leaderboard

The National Leaderboard shows the overall points for each player across the whole league over the course of the current season.

The top 100 players who have not qualified through the Venue Leaderboards above can qualify through the National Leaderboard.

Benefit - This rewards our players who play regularly in several venues but who may not have succeeded in qualifying through the venue leaderboards.

Average Leaderboard

The Averaged Leaderboard shows the average of each player’s top six scores that season. The top 50 players who have not qualified through the National or Venue Leaderboards can qualify through the Averaged Leaderboard. All players who have played at least six games are shown.

Benefit - Keeps the interest and attention of infrequent players as they still have a chance to qualify.

Online Leaderboard

In addition to the three-tiered live league, we also offer two weekly online tournaments, held at 10pm on a Friday and 5pm on a Sunday. The points from these tournaments all go onto a single online leaderboard, with the top 20% of players from the leaderboard receiving a qualification through to the Quarterly Finals.

Benefit - Enables players who cannot make it to the pub to qualify by playing at home.

Qualification from Quarterly Finals through to the Nationals

The top 10% of players (rounding up) will qualify from the Quarterly Finals through to the National Final. If a player qualifies more than once, the second place is not passed down, it is treated as the player pre-emptively knocking another player out of the National Final.
