Open Competition : Club Standings

How are clubs performing in early season competitions.

It is a Sunday afternoon and the weather isn’t great. Because I must have too much time on my hands I decided to put together an arbitrary and completely worthless table of club results based on the Open Competition league tables to 9^th April.

The table is created by giving points from 1 - 10 for positions in each of the 14 leagues and then divided by the number of teams in each club. To add some hard science I then weighted the results according to the league hierarchy i.e. Division 1 was worth two times more than Division 14.

This is how the top ten clubs are doing under each heading.

Basic Calculation

Rush                   8.25

Pembroke           7.50

Wexford              7.50

Merrion               7.38

Laois                    7.33

Railway U            7.00

Adamstown         7.00

Civil Service        6.60

Clontarf               6.57

YMCA                  6.50

Weighted Calculation

Rush                    11.80

Railway U            11.18

Knockharley        11.03

Laois                    10.70

Pembroke            10.38

YMCA                   10.18

North County       10.12

Merrion               10.11

Wexford               9.15

Clontarf                8.99

I will update and add in cup results in a months time, assuming we have another rainy Sunday.
