Middleton Trophy

This is a perpetual trophy awarded at the National Championships by using the following rules:

For each official National event, a competitor will score points equal to the number of competitors entered for that event, divided by his or her own final position. Thus First place in an event with 24 competitors entered will gain 24 points (24/1=24), and a fifth place in the same event would gain 4.8 points (24/5=4.8). The scores from the competitor’s best four events are added together to determine the winner.
