Hi,
I just wanted to get the word out that we will be nominating people
for the PCCSC All District Team immediately. So that people can get
an idea of the criteria for the awards, I am enclosing the format
used for deciding who to recognize for the awards.
Please give it some thought and send your votes to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] by FRIDAY, May 5th.
DISTRICT AWARDS
PURPOSE
Our district has many talented sailors; only a few go to
nationals and even less earn All American status. Therefore, we
shall recognize our talented sailors by having an All PCCSC Team.
ELIGIBILITY
Any sailor that is a member of any PCCSC team and has
competed during the current school year shall be eligible.
CATEGORIES
There are three categories, All PCCSC Coed Team, ALL PCCSC
Women's Team, and ALL PCCSC Crews. Each category shall have six
members. An additional category of PCCSC Sportsmanship Award shall
have one member. Winners of the award shall receive certificates
and have their names published on our website. A plaque is in the
works that will be permanently displayed in the PCCSC Hall of Fame.
VOTING
Each PCCSC team that attended North/South in the fall and
both the North and South Designates in the Spring shall get one vote
(Hawaii will automatically be included in the voting). Voting shall
be completed within five days of the Coed PCC's (ie. Friday May
5th). Votes may be emailed to the chairman within the required
time frame.
SCORING
For the first three categories, each team shall produce a
list of 10 sailors for each category and rank the list from 1 to 10
with number 1 being the best sailor in each category. The district
awards chairman shall then add the votes from each school with the
first place vote worth 10 points, second place 9 points, etc. The
top 6, point earners in each category shall receive the award. For
the PCCSC Sportsmanship Award, each team shall produce a ranked list
of three Sailors. Similar to the first three categories, the
district award chairman shall add the votes with the first place
vote worth three points, second place 2 points, etc. With the top
point earner receiving the award. To provide assistance for award
nominations on the national level, the district award chairman shall
provide the PCCSC
All American Committee a detailed report on voting.
GUIDANCE ON VOTING
The coach and/ or team captain and/ or the top sailor (all
work together) shall do the voting for the team. For the All PCCSC
Coed Team, voting shall be based primarily on results from regattas
within the district. Extra weight should be given for results at
Single-handed PCC's , North/South, and Coed PCC's.
For the All PCCSC Women's Team, voting shall be based
primarily on results from regattas within the district. Extra
weight should be given for results at Women's Fall Championships,
Women's Singlehanded PCC's and Women's PCC's.
For the All PCCSC Crews, some weight shall be given to
regatta results, especially good regatta results with multiple
skippers; however, voter(s) may allow more for reputation in this
category. This includes factors like team leadership, PCCSC
leadership, college sailing dedication, interest and support of
growth in (college) sailing, etc.
For the PCCSC Sportsmanship Award, the award shall be given
to the sailor that best exemplifies the Corinthian ideals of
sailing. This includes factors like team leadership, PCCSC
leadership, college sailing dedication, interest and support of
growth in (college) sailing, etc.
Good Luck!
I look forward to your votes.
