Use the archived rows as they are labelled
The official 2025–26 round-robin table lists Neuwied with 15 W, 3 WO and 1 LO, and Limburg with 16 W, 1 WO and 2 LO. Each row shows 21 games and 52 points. These are the retrieved archive values, not a statement about the current 2026–27 standings. Retain that date context when discussing the example.
Work through the displayed categories
For Neuwied, the arithmetic 15×3 plus 3×2 plus 1 equals 52. For Limburg, 16×3 plus 1×2 plus 2 also equals 52. Both published totals are consistent with that category-based calculation. Simply adding all winning outcomes and assigning an identical value to each would lose the distinction shown in the table and produce a different result.
Equal points do not tell you the tiebreak mechanism
The table places one club ahead of the other, but this calculation does not establish why. Do not infer a rule such as goal difference, regulation wins or head-to-head merely because one number differs between the rows. The applicable competition regulation is needed for that separate question. A worked points total and a verified tiebreak order are different pieces of evidence.
Use the example to read another row carefully
When following a table, keep its season and competition at the top of your notes, then copy the result-category columns before checking the total. If the arithmetic does not match, first confirm that you have not mixed a cup table with the league or an archived season with a current one. Report a specific row and source rather than assuming the whole standings system is wrong.
Questions, answered
Does 52 points mean identical win records?
No. The retrieved rows show different category totals producing the same points.
Does this calculation establish the CEHL tiebreak rule?
No. The applicable regulation must be checked separately.
