The rules for the Wednesday Club 10 Series Handicap are as follows:
Base time for each rider is their best time on this course in this event in the current or previous season.

Previous best time can only be set when riding as first claim member.

Where no previous time exists, use 0:00 as the base time.

The ride time is deducted from the base time and the rider who has improved the most or gone back the least is given maximum points.

When riders have equal differences between their base time and ride time, the oldest rider will get the most points.

If rider improves their base time use that as the new base time.

The maximum points depends on the number of DCC entries, i.e, 5 riders = 5 points or 10 riders = 10 points.

Minimum points awarded to winner to be 5 i.e if less than 5 club riders on the night.

6 best points to count( 5 in 2017 due to reduced number of races) in the event of a tie 7th best points to be decider, if still tied 8th etc. etc. If can't be split on this method, age to decide; with oldest rider winning between the tied racers.

Require minimum 6 rides to qualify for prizes. (5 rides in 2017 due to reduced number of races)

Only the club 10 series to count, no open races to count.

The rider with the most points at the end of the season is the winner of the Hole in the Wall trophy.
