Purpose:
Club Championship Ladder (CCL) allows a managing organisation to set up a combination of regular ladders (RL) across multiple grades so that each individual club within those grades can be ranked accordingly. The current calculated points of the dependent RLs are used to calculate the total points for the CCL.
Features:
Adding a new CCL:
Deleting CCLs:
Editing CCL configuration:
Method 1: Points earned for each team in a club (as per the current ladders) are multiplied by the grade weighting factors.
The points are then added across each team in a club to give the total for that club.
Method 2: Points earned for each team in a club (as per the current ladders) are multiplied by the grade weighting factors.
This figure is then divided by the number of matches played by each team. The points are then added across each team in a club, then divided by the total number of teams in the club to give the total for that club.
Sort order - optional, this controls the order in which CCLs display on public sites within the season.
Visible on public sites - this controls whether the CCL is visible on public sites. If unchecked the ladder will not be visible.
Include adjustments from dependent ladders - if checked, any ladder adjustments that have been made to dependent RLs are included
Include bonus points from dependent ladders - if checked, any automatically calculated bonus points that have been added to dependent RLs are included
Grades - The list of grades for the selected season are presented.
Check or uncheck any grades to include or exclude from the CCL
The default weighting factor for each grade is 1.0, which means the calculated points for that grade is multiplied by 1.0. However, different grades can be give more or less weighting (from 0 to 99.9999) if required. Each CCL can have different weighting factors for each grade. All points - including all adjustments - are weighted by this factor.
Usually Ladder Number 1 can be selected for each grade. However, if multiple RLs have been setup for that grade (withing the selected season), a different number can be entered. The system does not validate this number, so if a number is entered that doesn't exist, the grade will effectively be excluded from the calculation.
Note: Any grades that have a disabled season setting of Ladders & Fixture are published for this grade will not be included in the calculations.
Other Actions:
From the main ladder management screen it is possible perform the following actions for each ladder (provided the grade/season is not locked):
The points for any club within a CCL can be adjusted up or down as necessary.
Note - adjusting the CCL is not the same as adjusting a regular ladder, although adjustments from the RL can optionally be included within the CCL. Adjustment information is available on the publicly displayed CCL.
