House Cup Rules and Points System

February 9, 2018 By eswau.net

Magical World of Eswau Huppeday – House Cup Rules and Points System

There are four Houses. Each chapter belongs to a House:
Gryffindor: Oconaluftee
Hufflepuff: Allowelendam and Heartland
Ravenclaw: Apatschin Tschitani and Tsungani
Slytherin: Battleground, Lowaneu Wachtschu, and Nv ya o sa ni

Houses earn points during the year based on on the Points System below and the House with the most points at the end of the year will be awarded the House Cup at Winter Banquet.

Most House points will be earned by individual brothers of behalf of their Chapter/House. In order for a brother to earn any House Points, they must be current on their 2018 lodge dues.

House points will be tracked based on quantifiable data, mostly from the LodgeMaster database, although a few require other verification as noted below in the Points System.

The only House Points not earned by individuals will be those earned at Webelos Woods for skits and those awarded as part of the Triwizard Tournaments that will be held at the Spring and Fall Fellowships. Houses will compete against each other in a series of challenges and in the end points will be awarded to each House based on their overall finish.
