NEW: Points Based Scoring System Test

Hey everyone!
As some of you know, we've been experimenting with a points-based scoring system to better reflect individual performance across our grip competitions. The idea is simple: the better you do in each event, the more points you earn. It not only rewards standout performances, but also gives everyone extra incentive to push hard — especially in the events you’re strongest in.

How It Works:

• Each one of our competitions includes multiple events (like max lifts and hold-for-time challenges).
• Athletes earn points based on their performance — either scaled against the top performer or ranked within weight classes.
• Event points are totaled to give a competition score.
• At the end of the comp, athletes earn overall points toward a season-long leaderboard.

Why We're Doing This:

• Fairer representation of performance: Every effort counts, not just podium finishes.
• Season progression: Athletes can now track their standing across the year.
• More strategy: Focus on your best events, but consistency pays off.

Thanks to everyone who's been involved so far this is just the beginning. We’ll be tracking points across the entire season, we’ll see you at the next one! 💪
