Proposal from

GBR

Proposal title

Changes to Team scoring for Classic classes

Existing text

4.34.11 The team score shall be computed from the sum of the scores of the top three pilots of each country in each class in each task grouped together in:

- Classes AL1, AL2, WL1, and WL2

- Each valid Paramotor class which has a minimum of 8 pilots.

New text

Option A

4.34.11 The team score for Classic classes shall be computed from the sum of the scores of the top three aircraft of each country in each task across all the classes (AL1, AL2, WL1, WL2) which have at least 12 competing aircraft. in each task grouped together in:

- Classes AL1, AL2, WL1, and WL2

- Each valid Paramotor class which has a minimum of 8 pilots.

- Crews in valid Classic classes with less than 12 competing aircraft can compete for individual medals but cannot score for their Team.

- For a task to count towards the Team score, half or more of the qualifying Classes must have flown that task, with the same potential maximum score.

Option B

4.34.11 The team score for Classic classes shall be computed from the sum of the scores of the top five aircraft of each country in each task across all the classes (AL1, AL2, WL1, WL2) which have at least 12 competing aircraft. in each task grouped together in:

- Classes AL1, AL2, WL1, and WL2

- Each valid Paramotor class which has a minimum of 8 pilots.

- Crews in valid Classic classes with less than 12 competing aircraft can compete for individual medals but cannot score for their Team.

- For a task to count towards the Team score, half or more of the qualifying Classes must have flown that task, with the same potential maximum score.

Option C

4.34.11 The team score for Classic classes shall be computed from the sum of the scores of the top three aircraft of each country in each task across all the classes (AL1, AL2, WL1, WL2) which have at least 8 competing aircraft. in each task grouped together in:

- Classes AL1, AL2, WL1, and WL2

- Each valid Paramotor class which has a minimum of 8 pilots.

- Crews in valid Classic classes with less than 8 competing aircraft can compete for individual medals but cannot score for their Team.

- For a task to count towards the Team score, half or more of the qualifying Classes must have flown that task, with the same potential maximum score.

Reason

The current way of scoring Teams in Classic classes often means that the results are know before the competition starts in advance, purely based on the number of aircraft some nations have entered.

It would be more meaningful to reward the Teams’ performance by quality rather than quantity, with more nations fighting for a place on the podium.

This change would accommodate the new Gyro classes as and when they become approved.
