The International OCR Committee contributes to the OCR World Championships Top 10 World OCR Athletes Rankings system. Each member in this committee ranks their top 15 female & male athletes, assigning a score of 15 points for their #1 ranked athlete down to a score of one point for their 15th place athlete. These scores are then averaged across all committee members to achieve a final ranking.
In addition to ranking athletes, our members have regular conversations together, sharing pertinent performances from their region, discussing these and anything else that might affect their decisions.
With votes being cast monthly by the committee, this system aims to rank athletes worldwide who are unable to compete against each other, before they compete head-to-head at the World Championships taking place September 22-25, 2022 @ Stratton Mountain Resort, Vermont, USA. This initiative marks the first time athletes are ranked across multiple brands worldwide.
