   - One home run for every three home runs hit in the opening round, not including tie

     breaker round home runs, will carry over to the final round if the player hits at least

     one home run in the final round (ie. If a player hits 6 HRs in the first round and 1 HR

     in the final round, the total HRs counted for the final round will be 3 HRs)

   - Each player will get 5 outs

   - Top player home run total wins the derby

   - If a tie still exists after total home runs are tallied, each player will get one swing to hit

     the furthest fair ball as judged by the derby coordinator. Any home runs hit during this

     round will be considered the same distance and the process will repeat until there is a

     winner.
