2015-2016 season - Prints
Points are awarded in seasonal competitions as follows.
- entry placed first : 7 points
- entry placed second : 5 points
- entry placed third : 3 points
- entry highly commended (HC) : 2 points
- plus, for each entry (up to 3): 1 point
NB: Prints must be mounted on card with maximum dimensions 50 x 40cm. It has been several years since the old slightly larger size of 20 x 16inches has been outlawed but some prints are still being submitted at that size. These are liable to be disqualified. They certainly cannot be used for external competitions.
