What is the EYTS?

The East Yorkshire Tournament Series is a competition where coaches compete to achieve the best score over a number of different Blood Bowl tournaments.

The series will include events which are within the geographic and surrounding areas of Hull and East Yorkshire.

The EYTS is run over a calendar year with the event launching in January each year with awards to be handed either at or after the HABBL-MAS event following the end of the series.  

The EYTS organiser is: TimDaBoss.

Coach Requirements, Prizes and Scoring

To be included within the EYTS you must be a NAF member regardless of any tournament requirements.

Prizes are provided by NAF and there will be a prize for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and Stunty Cup. 

Coaches receive the following points based on their ranking:

• +10 to +1 points for top 10 placement, on a declining scale. In other words, a 1st place finish is worth 10 points, a 2nd place finish is worth 9 points and so on, down to a 10th place finish being worth 1 point. 
• Should there be fewer than 10 coaches (it happens!), the maximum score is equal to the total number of participants, declining as usual. That means winning a tournament with 6 participants results in 6 points for 1st place, 5 points for 2nd place, and so on.
• +1 point per full 10 places below them in the standings capped at a maximum of 5. Examples: A coach finishing 1st in a 32-coach tournament receives a bonus of +3 because there are 30+ coaches below. Finishing 13th in the very same tournament gives 1 bonus point, as there are 19 coaches below. A coach finishing first in a 10-coach tournament receives no bonus as there are only 9 coaches below. 
• +1 point per day of the tournament. Given to all participants. 
• +2 points for each win and 1 point for each draw
• Coaches receive 0.1 points for each tournament they participate in.
• Tiebreakers
  • Total number of Series Tournament Champion wins (1st place finishes)
  • Total number of Series Tournament Match wins
  • Fewest Tournament Match defeats
  • Most Tournament Matches played
  • 4th highest Tournament score; then 5th, 6th etc until a winner is determined
