Once a player joins a Region, no further change will be allowed during the League. Regional Team Captains Applications are encouraged from players; particularly existing APAT Poker Club Captains, for the position of Regional Team Captain. Please see the Captain's thread. Prizes Prizes will be allocated based on both team and individual performance. Team: The three best performing members of the winning team will be awarded a PokerStars.com UKIPT seat each. The three best performing members of the runner up team will be awarded a $215 PokerStars Sunday Million entry each. The three best performing members of the third placed team will be awarded a $109 PokerStars Sunday Kickoff entry each. Individual: The best performing individual player will be awarded a PokerStars.com UKIPT seat. The runner up individual player will be awarded a $215 PokerStars Sunday Million entry. The third placed individual player will be awarded a $109 PokerStars Sunday Kickoff entry. In addition; and for the first time, the top 18 finishing individual players will be awarded APAT Ranking Points, with 18 points going to the first placed individual and 1 point going to the eighteenth placed finisher. Finally, the best finishing English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish player will be assured of a squad place with their National Team at the fifth annual World Championship Of Amateur Poker. National Team captains will have responsibility for selecting which of their players play each phase of the World Amateur Team Championship. Matchday Points Allocation Individual points will be allocated to the top eighteen finishing players at each match. The individual points will be allocated as follows :- 1st = 25pts 2nd = 22pts 3rd = 20pts 4th = 18pts 5th = 16pts 6th = 14pts 7th = 12pts 8th = 11pts 9th = 10pts 10th-12th = 9pts 13th-15th = 6pts 16th-18th = 3pts A maximum of four players per region can score individual points in any one match for calculating team matchday points. Should five players reach points scoring positions, the lowest of those points scorers will receive 0 individual points, and individual points will be allocated to the next best finisher. In this example, the player finishing in 19th position would receive 3 individual points for for the purposes of deciding matchday team points. Individual points will be totalled for every match and the region finishing with the most individual points will receive 5 match points. The region finishing with the second most individual points will receive 4 match points. The region finishing with the third most individual points will receive 3 match points. The region finishing with the fourth most individual points will receive 2 match points. The region finishing with the fifth most individual points will receive 1 match point. No other clubs will score match points. Where regions finish with an equal number of individual points, match point allocation will be sorted in the following order: a) The region who has the most individual points scorers will be deemed to finish ahead. Should this not separate the regions, b) The region who has the highest single individual points scorer will be deemed to finish ahead.
