Non-Core Team Points system
To become a Core team, non-core teams can gain points according ECGC Manual 7.5:
Awarding points
The following points will be awarded to teams.
5 points for hosting a tournament, not including points for attending.
2 points for attending a tournament.
1 point for applying for a tournament, but due to limited capacity, not invited to play.
Losing points
The team that fails to play in two consecutive tournaments will lose all their points.
If a team that has lost core team status for not attending two consecutive championships fails to attend in the third consecutive championship they will lose all non-core team points.
Any team may lose all their points if, after paying the deposit the team fails to show up at a tournament they were invited to without a valid reason. This decision will be made by a vote at the captains meeting and to be applied must carry a 2/3 majority.
