Cycling Ireland are pleased to release the selection protocol that will be used to select the team for the UCI eSports World Championships in February, with a team set to be confirmed before the UCI's December 8th deadline.  


The final round of the Cycling Ireland eRacing Winter League on December 2nd at 7 pm will be the nominated selection consideration race.  


On the back of the successful Cycling Ireland Zwift Winter League, run in conjunction with RWB, we will be using the final race of the series as one of the three selection considerations noted below.  


1. Past performances on Zwift over the past 4-6 months

Points will be scored on all primes and finishing points also being awarded. Only those meeting the required protocols detailed in this document can score FAL points
