C1W points - Points and Promotion

Munchkin · Post by **Munchkin** » Wed Sep 30, 2009 8:25 pm

Geebs, from memory there were some events eg Marple and Fairnilee where there were more than 3 girls but at division 2/3 not many more. There were lots more at Prem/ 1 level!

Dave, looking at the figures I think that your concerns about a figure of 2650 are unwarranted. No girl this year would have been promoted before they were ready with that as a figure and no girl is even close. I think 3100 is far to high, the number needs to be looked at as something ascertainable and that people will look at and think that they can do it but obviously high enough that it is a challenge to get it.

Quick look at the number of 2/3 C2s vs 2/3 C1W might suggest we wait a little longer before standing on their own

After the discussion is any club planning to put a motion before the ACM? If not, I will try and get our committee to put forward one putting the multiplier at 1.2 and a promotion target of 2650 (ie same as C2's) as I believe (on the figures) this seems reasonable. This would allow for a few more promotions in the year, but nothing too quick and would mean that you can get valuable points at a division 2/ Prem event. I would need a club willing to second the motion though...

Based on CWs post in the 'ACM Motion' discussion thread, I don't believe you need another club to second the motion. It would appear that the motion can be brought by a single club but has to be signed by two full BCU members. It also needs to state though that the proposed motion was passed at a club committee meeting otherwise you run the risk of an official of the club pulling the motion from the ACM agenda, as happened at last year's meeting.

Oh and don't forget that the club proposing/seconding the motion has to be registered with the slalom committee as well

Geebs, that bit is fine, Baldock is registered.

I assume "full membership of the BCU" includes WCA and SCA members (since I understand thats BCU members in the strictest sense are actually Canoe England members?)

Ps, when is the ACM? I can't find the date on the diary link?

Thanks Geebs, that will be the one bit I can't get on a Crackberry (oh, and the C1W ranking list!).

No prob

Yes, for some reason the site does not display the same on mobile internet the dates, rankings etc maybe displayed right at the bottom of the page as a list but they do not display in order on my Nokia!

Cheers Graeme

I have come to consider that 1.2 and 3200 points is a better level, and I will be putting this to our committee to propose as a motion. We also will need a seconder! I will also be proposing to make it the same for C2s, it is scary how close Karen and I got to getting promoted this year, if my 1st shoulder op had gone a bit better we might have been promoted by now, and there is no way we are good enough for div 1!

Oops showing my age, It was me that said 'full BCU member', of course in these enlittened days it should be national association.

Remember the motions must be in before the closing date - I do not have my yearbook, but 27 Oct springs to mind.

Motions can be from a single club, but need two signatures - oh and it is better if the club rep is at teh ACM to propose the motion.

I will consult with my committee to see if we want to throw our weight behind either motion - or come up with a variation of our own. It is of course possible, if only one of you gets the motion in for the other to propose an amnendment, but if neither of you get there, then, unless the committee propose something we are stuck with the status quo.

Umm, our commitee meeting has been postoned until next week. Hope it is not too late by then?

Anyway, if my calculations are correct and the Sowerby results are also correct it looks like there is another Barbie, Wendy now has 1972 points which I gather is enough for promotion

and the Sowerby results are also correct it
