A new season long race series has been developed to drive greater participation through the winter and to encourage more biathletes to experience venues other than their home range. This series will reward the top male & female biathletes in the boy/girl, youth, junior, senior, master 40, master 50 and master 60 divisions. To qualify a competitor must complete races at a minimum of three different venues (Lake Placid, Saratoga, Old Forge or Syracuse) and compete at the NY Championships (Saratoga this year). Points will be awarded following the format we’ve used in past NY ranking systems (see Qualifying Points) and the standings will be maintained by the NY State Chairman (Tom Moffett) with the NY Championships awarding double points towards the final results. In the event of race cancellations the NY Biathlon Committee may reduce the number of qualifying events if deemed appropriate. This is a great chance to see how you rank against other NY competitors so get out there & race!
