One attempt per round
Your badge attempt in a scoring round is the one that counts. No re-runs, no best-of, no discarding a bad week.
Inaugural Season 2026
The Circuit
One championship, run the way a racing season is run. A circuit is a run of weekly rounds in one city. Every round pays points. Those points feed two boards — where you stand as an athlete, and where your chapter stands against every other.
01 — Upcoming circuits
Two cities open the season
The inaugural season opens in Bengaluru on November 28th, at Cubbon Park. Chennai follows as round two, with its date and ground announced once Bengaluru has run. Entry is free at both, as it is everywhere else in A-ROK.
02 — How points are scored
Top ten score, everyone counts
Each scoring round pays on the same scale, from first to tenth. Finish outside the ten and you score nothing that round — but you still count toward your chapter's participation, and every round you complete is on your record.
Every circuit weighs the same
There is no home advantage and no double-points finale. A round in Chennai is worth exactly what a round in Bengaluru is worth.
Divisions rank on one board
Open, Pro, Masters, Youth and Adaptive all score into the same standings, on the published standard for their division.
03 — Standings
Two boards, one season
Position Standings rank the athlete. Chapter Standings rank the chapter that put them on the start line. Both publish within 48 hours of every scoring round.

Inaugural Season 2026 · Chapters04 — How a circuit runs
One ground,
one clock
A round is a single day at a single ground. Everyone runs the same Trial, judged to the same standard, and the points from it go straight onto both boards.
- — Same stations, same clock, same standard at every ground.
- — Miss a round and you score zero for it — you are not out of the season.
- — Judged to the published movement standards, by trained round judges.
- — Results and times go up publicly, with the scorecard behind them.
Who can enter
Any A-ROK member, in any division, at no cost. You do not need a qualifying time and you do not need to have run a round before.
What it costs
Nothing. No entry fee, no licence, no season pass. Funded travel places are held back for athletes who need them.
How disputes are settled
A scoring appeal goes to the round judges within 24 hours. The decision and the reasoning are published with the corrected result.
What the charter says
The circuit runs under the same charter as everything else: no caste, no class, no ranking of any person.
