a. Scoring for players who are injured/ill/absent during part but not all tryouts
(1) The player will be awarded a score for the missing session that is computed as follows:
(a) The score from each evaluator during the immediately preceding session (or second session if missing during the first day of tryouts)
(b) Reduce each evaluator’s score by two points for the first missed session and three points for the second missed session.
(c) For example, a player skates in the first two sessions and is given scores of seven and eight points by one evaluator. The player then gets sick/injured or is absent and does not skate in the third session. The score awarded for session three from that evaluator would be 6 (immediately preceding session score minus two). Each evaluator’s score would be calculated using the same method giving the player a total for the day missed. The player’s total score is then calculated in the same manner as all other players to determine the player’s next session assignment.
(2) The matter will be discussed between the player’s previous year’s coach and the Development Committee members. The final decision regarding an injured / Ill player’s placement will be made by the Development Committee members with full consideration being given to scoring for tryout sessions attended and past coach’s recommendations.
