The final result of the Pyrenees Cup come out of the sum of points obtained in the different overall rankings of the 3 events.
You do not need to compete in the 3 races to go for the cup, although if not participating in one you will not score points in that.
There will be one Individual Cup and another one as a Team.
There will be ladies category if at least 4 kayakers participate and at least in 2 races.
To consider that one team is the same to add points for the Team Cup is a requirement that at least 2 members are the same in the different events.
