With effect from the 2009 Labour Weekend sports tournament, a new set of perpetual overall trophies are being introduced.
The Federation Excellence Cup will be awarded to the club, society or sporting group that garners the most number of first place finishes across all categories and all sports events.
Where a sports event is comprised of several categories (e.g. basketball comprised of men’s, women’s, and a number of age group categories), the first-place count will apply against each category in that event, provided there are teams / participants from at least 3 different organisations in that category.
For team events, the first-place count will apply only once for the team winner (e.g. men’s volleyball 1st place gets a first-place count, not one for each team member)
In the event that multiple organisations have an equal number of first place finishes, the number of second place finishes will be used as a tie- breaker. If required, the number of third placed finishes will be used as a tie- breakerif multiple organizations have equal number of first and second place finishes.
The Federation Participation Cup will be awarded to the club, society or sporting group that garners the most number of first-place, second-place, and third-place finishes across all categories and all sports events. Each place finish will be counted equally (i.e. no weighting applied).
Where a sports event is comprised of several categories (e.g. basketball comprised of men’s, women’s, and a number of age group categories), the first-place, second-place and third-place count will apply against each category in that event, provided there are teams / participants from at least 3 different organisations in that category.
For team events, the first-place, second-place and third-place count will apply only once for the team winner (e.g. men’s volleyball 1st place gets a first place count, not one for each team member)
In the event that multiple organisations have an equal total number of first-place, second-place and third-place finishes, the number of first-place place finishes will be used as a tie-breaker. The same tie-breaker rule will be applied using the number of second-place finishes, and further applied using the number of third-place finishes if required.
The host city Sports Committee (comprised of the Overall Sports Coordinator and the coordinators for the individual events) will determine the winner of the Federation Sportsmanship Cup. This award may be given to an individual, team or club that demonstrates exceptional sportsmanship during the whole weekend.
