Points earned at Regional Youth tournaments are not considered in determination of national point standings; they are only reflected in regional point standings. Using the formula below, RYC tournaments will award points to all participants: ((# entries * place + 1) / # entries) x 100 points The winner of each RYC, regardless of size of field, will earn 100 points. The size of the participant field is based on all athletes in the event, regardless of region. Regional RYC Points are only earned in the fencers own region.
