Club Points Races

To foster healthy competition among New York area clubs, encourage excellence in running, and help boost NYRR race participation and spectator interest, NYRR and Club Council designate 11 NYRR scored races per year as Club Points races.

These 11 races vary in distance. Clubs accumulate points based on their finishing places in these races. At the end of the year, each club's point totals in the 9 best races of the 11-race series (the two lowest scores for each club are automatically dropped) are added to determine the club's overall ranking for the year.
The club with the most points is the winner, the club with the second-highest number of points places second, and so on. At NYRR's annual Club Night, the previous year's top clubs are honored and receive a specially engraved award.
Clubs can score points at club points races in several divisions: men's and women's open (all ages), men's and women's masters (age 40+), men's and women's veterans (age 50+), and - as of 2005 - men's and women's super veterans (age 60+, and as of 2016 age 70+). *
* Each year since 2002 MERCURY MASTERS holds various 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place rankings in New York Road Runners women's 50+, 60+, and 70+ age divisions.

Volunteer

NEW YORK ROAD RUNNERS annual calendar features more than 100 running/walking events throughout New York City, including road races ranging from 1 to 50 miles, cross country races, indoor track meets, and kids’ races. NYRR needs and greatly appreciates the assistance of VOLUNTEERS at all of these events.

Volunteering at a New York Road Runners event is the perfect way to give back and get inspired before one’s next race.

Volunteers get +1 credit toward NYRR’s 9+1 program for guaranteed entry to the TCS New York City Marathon (NYRR members only) and a special souvenir.

Mercury Masters is continuing their ‘Adopt-a-Race’ tradition by volunteering as a team for one race each year, usually the Achilles Hope & Possibility 4M in late June.
