# Racing ### How it works There is a limit of 10 racers per race and no limit to how many races will be run in weekly racing. Each race will take about 15 seconds and the number of races each week varies based on the number of registered racers.\ \ Racers compete as a member of a team. The result of each racer contributes to the teams total score. **\*\*GOAL:** Reach the top 25 on the weekly leaderboard to qualify for playoffs by accumulating points in 4 different types of heat races. *(see ‘*[*Race Types*](https://ocean-racing-league.gitbook.io/the-ocean-racing-league/ocean-racing-league/racing/race-types)*’)* --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
