2013 SCNCA SoCal Cup Rules
All SCNCA road races, stage races, omniums, criteriums,
time trials, and circuit races will have the opportunity
to participate in the 2013 SoCal Cup. To qualify as an eligible race, it
must be a SoCal Cup category and meet the minimum times
shown above. Stage races and omniums are exempt from the
minimum times. Omniums consisting of time trials
will not be considered as omniums for SoCal Cup points. The SoCal Cup season will end on
September 2nd.
Clubs/Teams will earn points for all riders registered
with USAC as club/team members. Points earned in a
combined category race such as a 3/4 race, will only be
applied to the HIGHEST SoCal Cup category (in this
case, Cat 3). Standalone Cat 1 and Cat 2 races will not
be eligible for points. At a minimum, master races
must be open to Cat 1-4 riders to be eligible. The top
five riders in each category will be recognized as
riders that have a valid annual USA Cycling license
listing the SCNCA as their
local association.
Best
Overall Teams will be determined by adding the points for
all of their riders in the respective team categories.
Riders will earn points for the team listed on their USAC
license. If there is no team listed on a rider’s
license, the points will go to the listed club.
Unattached riders will not contribute team points.
Races
entered onto the calendar, after the annual scheduling
meeting, will be awarded SoCal Cup points based on a
vote by the SCNCA trustees.
Prizes
All
SoCal Cup categories will be eligible for a cash purse
that will be paid five deep. Jerseys will be provided to
the winner of each category. Medals will be awarded to
the first three places.

*Riders from Continental Teams are not eligible
for any cash payout
** Cat 3 men, Cat 4 men and Cat 3/4 women will have two
"seasons". This will enable a rider, who is forced to upgrade mid season, to be
able to place in the SoCal Cup payouts. The points will be zeroed out on May
14th. Jerseys will be awarded to the winner from each
season. Riders who have not upgraded, will be eligible for both seasons.

that will then apply towards the SoCal Cup team
competition.

Please be aware that once results
are posted at an event, you have a 15 minute window to protest
the results. Once that 15 minute period has elapsed, the
results are official and they cannot be changed. The input to
the SoCal Cup is based on the official results submitted by the
USCF Chief Referee. Requests to change placings and team
affiliations will not be made. Changes to
correct an error so that it is consistent with the
information found on your USAC license will be made.
These changes are typically done to correct typos of a
rider's name or USAC club/team. We will also
correct any omissions to the SoCal Cup database, as long as that
missing data is found in the official results. |
