The SEC Red and White trophies will be awarded annually. During each sports season, every school will have the opportunity to collect points toward winning their division’s Board of Directors’ Trophy.
Points will be collected in two ways:
1. The schools can collect points based on their finish in each SEC sponsored sport.
1st Place – 3 pts
2nd Place – 2 pts
3rd place – 1 pt
If there is a tie for a place, both schools will be awarded the points, and the next lower place will be skipped.
2. The schools will collect points based on their ranking of percentage of varsity letter winner athletes from that season that have a cumulative 3.25 GPA.
1st Place (highest percentage of varsity athletes) – 6 pts
2nd Place 5pts
3rd Place 4 pts
4th Place 3 pts
5th Place 2 pts
6th Place 1 pt
The total points from each sports season for each school will be tallied at the end of the school year.
Every school will throw out their five lowest scores from the sports finishes. The school from each division that has the highest point total will be the winner of the Board of Directors’ Trophy.
