Gulf Yachting Association has both one design and PHRF club "championship" series. Relevant to your question I'll focus on the PHRF events. Note: These are single regattas rather than an accumulated performance over a year. A bit of geography first. The GYA member clubs run from the Tampa, FL area to Houston, TX. (see <http://www.gya.org/?page_id=13>) The GYA Challenge Cup is the PHRF regatta which determines the champion club. It is a 3 day single weekend event held alternating years in Gulfport, MS or Pensacola, FL. Clubs enter boats in four PHRF classes. For each race, the best 3 class finishes for each club are scored. That is, one club may score its A, B, and D class finishes while another club's B, C and D boats scored best. Overall low club score for the 3 days determines the winning club as well as the winning boat in each class. Results for 2015 can be found here: <http://java46.homestead.com/CCF07032015.pdf> Note that the blanks in each club's results represent the class results that were dropped. You could adapt this event and alternate years at each club. A second event you might mimic is the Lake Pontchartrain Racing Circuit (LPRC). The The four "lake" clubs are located roughly 3 hours apart. Southern and New Orleans YCs are in the same harbor in New Orleans (the Southshore clubs). Pontchartrain is in Mandeville and Tammany is in Slidell (the Northshore clubs). PontYC and TYC are about 3 hours apart. Many years ago, the "lake" clubs' commodores established the LPRC. The regatta was held over two weekends. Through a combination of buoy races and distance races, each of the four clubs hosted an awards party after a days racing. The venues rotated through a set schedule so that each club got each of the evening events through a four year cycle. As participation waned, the format was changed a few years ago to a 3 day regatta in a single weekend. Now the format is a day of buoy races at one of the Northshore clubs, a distance race from Northshore to Southshore and finally a day of buoy races at the Southshore. The Northshore club alternates each year. The distance race awards and final awards events alternate between the two Southshore clubs. This regatta is regarded by many as the lake championship regatta. However, it is primarily oriented towards individual boats. In addition to class awards, overall spinnaker and non-spinnaker boat of the regatta awards are determined. Again, these are single regatta events. There really isn't a process for determining awards based on annual performance. Dennis C.
