The South West Tournament Championship has been running a few years now and encomapasses 11 tournaments run by 10 tournament organisers (if the extras go ahead) in the rough area of south west England and Wales.
Starting with Exebowl, in October, and ending with Exiles Open, in September, all coaches who attend these events are entered into the Championship. Once a coach has attended 3 they are eligible to win the trophy.
To qualify for the SWTC you must attend at least 3 of the 11 mentioned tournaments. Your 3 highest placings in the ones you attend will used for your score; however there must be at least two different races in those 3. If you take Wood Elves (for example) for a third time your lowest score with them will drop off and not be considered, or if you take Skaven to all 11 only 2 will be considered for the SWTC score.
The coach who places first will receive 10 points, second 9 points, third 8 points and so on down to 9th place winning 2 points. Everyone else, from 10th down, scores 1 point. Then every coach is awarded a bonus point for every full 10 coaches below them in the ranking.
This means everyone scores for playing and those that top the tables at larger events (inherently harder to do) earn a few more points to reflect the extra challenge. One day events award half points.
For example, the top placed coach in a 32-coach tournament will gain 13 points (10+3), whereas the winner of 20-man tournament will gain 11 points (10+1).
Alongside this (and separately) is the SWTC Stunty Cup. The highest placed Stunty Coach will receive 10 points, second place 9 points third 8 points and so on down to 9th place winning 2 points. Everyone else scores 1. Then every coach is awarded a bonus point for every full 10 coaches (Stunty or not) below them in the ranking. The "two races" caveat on the main score is dropped in the case of the Stunty Cup. Qualifying Stunty teams are Goblins, Halflings, Ogres, Lizards with no Saurus and Underworld with no Skaven. Again, one day events will only award half points.
For example, a Stunty coach finishes 8th in a 20 coach tournament and wins the Stunty Cup. For the main list they earn 4 points (3+1). For the Stunty Cup they earn 11 points (10+1).
After the points are counted at Exiles Open in September a trophy will be awarded to the highest placed Coach and Stunty Coach.
The format hasn't really changed but if anyone has any questions, please ask.
