Nationals Eligibility

[Matt Jones]

MWCCC,

Due to the circumstances that have been created with the season now being cut a week shorter with the original Conference Championships being canceled in Wisconsin, Jeffrey, Andrew and I have come up with the following exemption that we think is fair for riders that were attempting to use the last two weekends to get their eligibility requirements in so they could race at Nationals.

"Riders who received category A upgrades after April 1 will be considered to have met the minimum race requirements for nationals (SEPARATE from qualifying and ranking highly enough to earn one of the team or individual allocated start spots) if they compete in two mass-start A races."

This decision was made because it was completely out of the riders hands with the decision to pull the Wisconsin weekend form the schedule. We can not punish those riders for something that is out of their hands.Hopefully this is clear to any riders that feel that their nationals eligibility was placed in jeopardy with this mornings news.
