The $10 fee is mandatory.
The fees used to be such that the first $5 from each competitor was split $2.50 for National and $2.50 for Provincial. This was for every tournament. For various good reasons the fee structure has changed. Now a promoter pays $200 to the Provincial body for each tournament (in advance of the turnament being advertised), and the National body gets $10 from each competitior at our Provincials.
There will be a list of eligiible competitors for Nationals, and the National body will get $10 from Alberta for each name on the list.
The promoters are getting to keep the money from this tournament to offset losses of previous years. After this year, the provincial tournament should be a good money-maker for the association (instead of only $200 like this year only).
If anyone resident in Alberta expects to be able to compete in the 2007 Nationals, he or she must compete in the 2007 Alberta Provincials. The only exception to this will be those who get permission from BOTH Gord Squire and Fraser Benoit. This permission must be granted before Provincials (or very shortly thereafter). Call Gord at 1-403-269-1800 with any questions about this (or the fees). So far, the only name on the list of such permission is Del Mudryk. Those on the list must still make arrangements to pay the $30 to the promoters at the Provincial tournament ($20 for promoter and $10 for Nationals).
