BWL Open Series Round 2

Entries are still open for round 2 of the BWL Open Series. The open series is taking place across the country with competitions held in the North, Midlands and South respectively.  

 

 

The Series will differ from current BWL events in that at the end of each series, the overall top male and female lifter will receive a £250 cash prize from BWL.

How is the series run and scored?

Each series event will run according to the BWL TCRR.  The minimum age to compete will be 13 or older on 31 December 2019, and all lifters will compete as a senior. 

Lifters will be put in groups based on their entry total and the competition will be scored on Sinclair points.

The winner of each series will be the male and female lifter with the highest combined Sinclair score after the third event.  For example:

	Series 1 score	Series 2 score	Series 3 score	Final Score	Place
Lifter 1	250	240	260	750	1
Lifter 2	320	Didn’t compete	340	660	2

 

Medals will be presented to the top three ranked lifters at the final Series events, along with the winners’ cash prize.

 

Can results from the Series be used for qualifications, records and rankings?

The BWL Open Series will be classed as Tier 3, so the results from each competition will be eligible for qualification to national events, for setting new records, and will feature on the BWL ranking lists.
