Based on the age of a participant, a handicap will be allocated, in effect reducing the recorded race time (similar to golf). Based on handicap times, certificates will be awarded for 1^st ,2^nd and 3^rd place in each of the three disciplines of Slalom, Giant Slalom and Super G, for both male and female racers.
Medals will also be awarded for the outright fastest male and female.
