Let's say we have 12 players in MA3.

Places Awarded: Look at the "12-13" range, and it says 6 places are awarded
points.

In the row for 6th place, the percentage is 0.08.

Calculating Points for 6th Place:

Total points for the division: 12 players x 10 points = 120 points.

Points for 6th place = 120 x 0.08 = 9.6 points.

The cool thing is, winning the series is all about the total points earned across all divisions, not just individual division rankings. So, regardless of your division, your consistent participation and good performance can add up to make you a contender for the series win. It's about how well you do throughout the series. Even if you don't get the top spot in your division every time, your points still count toward the overall series total. So, anyone who consistently participates and performs well across events has a chance to win the series, no matter what their specific division is.

When signing up for divisions keep in mind each player adds 10 points to their division, and these points are cumulative for the entire division. A larger division is more competitive and rewarding. Participants can earn more points by winning or placing well in a larger division than in a smaller one. The series win depends on the total points, so more participants can boost their division’s success. A smaller division has fewer competitors and less challenge. This can make it easier to place well, but also reduce the points available. Fewer participants lower the division’s overall points. Winning or placing in a smaller division may not add as many points to the series total as in a larger division. The series win depends on the total points, so smaller divisions may contribute less to the series success than larger ones.

Participation in Simply
Discs' tournaments allows players to earn PDGA points. These points contribute to a player's overall PDGA ranking and can be crucial for invitations to prestigious events like the PDGA Am World Championships. By consistently participating and performing well in Simply Discs' events, players can earn points that contribute to the end-of-year PDGA Points Leader Awards. These accolades recognize excellence within a player's division across all PDGA-sanctioned events during the season. Successful participation in Simply Discs' events contributes to a player's points accumulation, which can directly impact invitations to the PDGA World Championships. This provides a valuable opportunity for players to compete at the highest level in the sport.

The series points are not linked to PDGA; they're part of a system managed by Simply Discs. Any prizes related to the overall season points are separate rewards. They recognize consistent attendance and outstanding performance in the series of PDGA sanctioned events we host. So, it's a way for us at Simply Discs to celebrate your dedication and achievements within our events specifically.
