Iron grip award

Honors the longest successful defense of a high-position bag tag

Scoring System

IRON GRIP AWARD SCORING RUBRIC

Rewards successfully defending high-value bag tags (top 20). Requires 3+ successful defenses with 50%+ performance above field average.

1. Defense Length (50 points per event) • Each successful defense = 50 points • Example 4 event defense = 200 points

2. Tag Position (0-500 points) • (20 - tag number) × 25 • Higher tags earn more points • Example Tag #5 = 375 points

3. Field Performance (15 points each) • Each round better than field average • Example 3 rounds beating average = 45 points

4. Rating Excellence (20 points each) • Each round rated 950+ • Example 2 rounds 950+ = 40 points

TOTAL SCORE CALCULATION Final Score = Defense Length + Tag Position + Field Performance + Rating Excellence

Example - 4 event defense (200 points) - Tag #5 (375 points) - 3 rounds above average (45 points) - 2 rounds 950+ (40 points) Total = 660 points

Higher scores indicate longer defenses of more valuable tags with better performance.
