Pinpoint Olympiad Information

Player Nomination

For many of the events below, teams nominate 1 or 2 players to play on the team's behalf. No player may participate in more than 2 of these nominated events (i.e. you cannot have the same player participate in the basketball, air hockey and foosball).


Events

Round 1, Indoor

Billiards

Each team will nominate 1 player to participate. A 6-ball game will be played, with an 8-ball (racked in the back-middle); pocketing the 8-ball results in an immediate loss. Out-of-sequence pockets will be placed back on the table. The winning team receives 1 point, the loser receives no points.

Table Shuffleboard

Each team will nominate 1 player to participate. The first team to score 21 points receives 1 point, the loser receives no points.

Foosball

Each team will nominate 2 players to participate. The first team to score 3 goals receives 1 point, the loser receives no points.

Round 2, Outdoor

Horseshoes

Each team will nominate 1 player to participate. The first team to hit (and remain touching) the stake, or the team with the most number of hits in the round, will win. The winning team receives 1 point, the loser receives no points.

Flip Cup

Each team will participate fully. The winner is determined in a best-of-3. The winning team receives 1 point, the loser receives no points.

Connect Four

Each team will nominate 1 player to participate. The winner is determined in a best-of-3. The winning team receives 1 point, the loser receives no points.

Round 3, Outdoor

Basketball

Each team will nominate 1 player to participate. The player will attempt 10 free-throws. After the event, the team with the most made shots will receive 3 points, second place will receive 2 points, and third place will receive 1 point.

Round 4, Outdoor

Mini-Golf

Each team will participate fully. Players will play 3 holes, and the sum of scores for each team will be the team score. After the event, the team with the most made shots will receive 3 points, second place will receive 2 points, and third place will receive 1 point.


Tie-Break

In the event of a tie, the team score from mini-golf will be used as a tie-breaker. If a tie still exists, a free throw shootout will take place with one player from the tied teams.


Four-Player Teams

For any event where a team sum score is used, four-player teams will have their scores averaged and that will be used as the score for the missing fifth player.

The player participation limit of 2 events is also raised to 3 for these teams, but one of the events must be a 2-person event.
