Awarding of Points
Individual Classes:
| Number in Class | Placing in Class | ||||
| 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | |
| 1-5 | 2 | 1 | |||
| 6-10 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | |
| 11+ | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
Champions:
All division and reserve champions shall receive at least as many points as any individual in their division. If necessary, points will be added to the total points a champion won in the individual class to give this subtotal.
For example: if a division winner came from a class of three head awarded two points, but another class winner in the same division came from a class of nine head — the greater class points would be received by the division winner — which, in this example, would be four. In addition, the champions of each division will receive points above and beyond those already described on the following basis:
| Reserve Division Champion | 3 |
| Division Champion | 5 |
| Reserve Champion | 7 |
| Grand Champion | 10 |
