POY points are accumulated throughout the Summer Series based on performance in each daily event. These points are then used to calculate a POY points average. A player's POY points average is calculated by considering the average points earned while participating in five Summer Series tournaments. The total points earned during the junior's best five Summer Series events are divided by five (total points earned/five) to determine the player’s POY points average.
Should a junior participate in fewer than five events, his/her point total will still be divided by five. It is important to note that participation in a minimum of five events is required in order to be eligible to qualify for season-ending championships. If a player participates in more than five events, his/her best five events (based on points earned) will be used to determine the POY points average.
Points earned at season-ending championships are worth double the normal value. For those who participate in a championship, final POY points averages are still computed using the best five events, which may include points earned during a championship. |
