2011 Rankings Patches - Go Virtual!
Patches will be mailed to everyone who earned one on approximately March 1. If instead of the actual patch, you would prefer to receive a virtual patch, then please fill out and submit the short request form.
Gold, Silver, and Bronze rankings patches have been awarded in the following manner to those who qualified for an official end-of-year ranking on all competitive courses (open courses do not earn patches):
The top three in each competitive earn a gold patch.
Then the scores of the top three was averaged and multiplied by 80% and 70% and used to determine who earned a silver or bronze patch.
Example: for F-21+, the top three scores were 99.39, 97.94 and 88.83, which averaged to 95.39.
95.39 x 80% = 76.30. Besides the top three, all eligible F-21+ with scores of 76.30 or higher earned a silver patch.
95.39 x 70% = 66.77. All eligible F-21+ with scores of 66.77 to 76.29 earned a bronze patch.
2011 Rankings Notes

December 14, 2011:Preliminary 2011 rankings have been revised to include OUSA memberships, age, credit days, and the ranking level achieved. Please review the rankings for errors. Feel free to contact me with corrections and/or questions.
OUSA membership is required for an 2011 Official OUSA ranking. OUSA status is "Yes" for anyone who was an OUSA member in 2011 and had joined by November 15. Since I did not announce the November 15 date in a timely fashion, you may still join OUSA by December 31 and receive a 2011 Official OUSA ranking.
December 13, 2011:Preliminary 2011 rankings have been posted. In the next week, the rankings will be revised to include OUSA memberships, credit days, and the ranking level achieved.
These people will be awarded a credit day for the race cancelled at the CNYO event. Please note that a credit day is only applied if you do not have 4 race
days for the affected course for the entire year. If you are on the rankings list with four races already, then the credit day does not get applied.
