A major change for the 2010/2011 season is the introduction of a Bonus Point System. A win now counts for 4 points and a draw, 2 points. In addition, an extra point will be awarded to a team scoring 4 tries or more and an extra point will be awarded to a team losing by 7 points or less. major change for the 2010/2011 season is the introduction of a Bonus Point System.

OLD MODS SIGN EX RHINOS & WALES STAR DAMIAN GIBSON
The Old Modernians' Rugby Club will have a very notable addition to their 1st XV this coming weekend (1/10/2011 at home to Burley).
Former professional Wales & Leeds Rhinos player Damian Gibson has joined the club in an effort to kick start what has been a disappointing start for ‘The Mods’ this season.
Gibson, Australian by birth, plied his trade with a plethora of Super League clubs including the Leeds Rhinos and Castleford Tigers, whilst notching up over a century of caps with Halifax, registered with the Cookridge based Yorkshire 3 side this week.
The former Welsh international, currently coaches the Leeds Rhinos' Under 20s squad.
