Trophy Points 2005

As you all know, the trophy points year starts at the beginning of December to enable us to collate the results and present the awards at the annual dinner dance. This year is no exception. As in previous years, many different awards are available including the re-cently introduced ‘Perfect 10’ award.

Aimed at most motorsport disciplines, the trophies are awarded for a variety of reasons including several Committee awarded trophies. A list of available awards and how to achieve them follows.

During 2005, we will be introducing a set of ‘guidelines’ for the awards, none of which will alter how and why we present the awards but will make them fairer to all involved. More details as and when it happens!

Up to now (Mid January) I have only received a handful of claim forms, all of which from stage rally competitors. I am sure several of you out there have been a part of events that have already taken place in this year’s calendar, Grizedale Stages, Boxing Day Autotest, Christmas Stages and Jack Frost Stages to name a few.

Keep the points coming and don’t forget, get them in within one calendar month to have them counted!

See you on the events in 2005

Top Ten Comments Made by Sports Commentators That They Would Like to Take Back

1. Weightlifting commentator at the Olympic Snatch and Jerk Event: "This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing."

2. Ted Walsh - Horse Racing Commentator: "This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother."

3. Grand Prix Race Announcer: "The lead car is absolutely, truly unique, except for the one behind it which is exactly identical to the one in front of the similar one in back."

4. Greg Norman, Pro Golfer: "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father."

5. Ringside Boxing Analyst: "Sure there have been injuries and even some deaths in boxing - but none of them really that serious."

6. Baseball announcer: "If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again."

7. Basketball analyst: "He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces."

8. At a trophy ceremony BBC TV Boat Race 1988: "Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the Cambridge president is hugging the cox of the Oxford crew."

9. Metro Radio, College Football: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field."

10. US Open TV Commentator: "One of the reasons Arnie Palmer is playing so well is that, before each final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them. Oh my God, what have I just said."
