WEE Series League Table	The WEE series puts every competitor on an equal footing with respect to age and gender. Your race time is reduced by a factor (handicap) which aims to create a level playing field. June WEE 1 will be used to generate handicaps for all finishers so will not assign points. That means the series will run over the remaining seven events with the best four to count.
