This part of the document was created to try and show progress in season 05 - 06. The SSGB Nordic Committee felt the comparison to the development plan was better and more appropriate to their needs, tthe 06 - 07 figures were put in only to show a comparison to what had been presented the year before. Also see the document 'final points listing'.

To make any meaningful comparison the following assumptions have been made:

1               British Championship and Developing Nations are of a similar standard (Level A)

2               Mini Kossa (Kossalauf) is harder than British Championships (Level B)

3               Sorkedalen and Austria Cup are of a roughly similar standard (Level C)

4               Norges Cup and Continental (Europa Cup) are of a roughly similar standard (Level D)

5               The level of difficulty runs Level A to Level D

6               Percentages away from the winner give the best comparison of performance.
