Remarks

The published points and corresponding ranks for the Sub-20 category contain 3rd place ties for Jamaica and Mexico, 4th place ties for Barbados and Bermuda, and 5th place ties for Trinidad & Tobago and St. Lucia. However, there is no evidence in the published results. Rather, corresponding ties are evident in the Sub-17 category, where they are already taken into account. Correcting the published Sub-20 point scheme correspondingly, it can be verified that the calculated points from the above tables are completely in line with the published point tables.
