Subject: Re: American Royal
In addition to the usual "automatic" entries (last year's JD Grand Champ, MIM, American Royal Open Champ from last year, Houston, and the winner of the World Barbeque Association contest in San Diego), teams that won a "state championship" in a state in which there is ONLY one state championship will be invited; any team that is the ONLY team in a state to win a Grand Championship (wherever the win occurred) will be invited.
After that, the draw will begin with the "state
championships" or events in which 50 or more teams competed in
that state will be drawn (i.e. if Tennessee has five state
championships and one contest with 50 or more teams, those six names
would go into the Tennessee draw unless one of the qualifying teams
has automatically qualified otherwise). The team drawn will be
invited.
Another clarification: if a team has won numerous qualifying
events, their name will go into the state draw once for each contest
won (i.e. if Team ABC won one contest in Tennessee and three in
Missouri, their name would be in the Tennessee draw one time and in
the Missouri draw three times.) After all
"state" draws are completed, each remaining team's name will
go into the final draw one time only, and one team will be selected
... sort of a "wild card."
Is that all clear as mud. Whew!! It's a tough process, but fair to all I think.
The draw will be held on Thursday, September 5th at the Visitor's
Center in Lynchburg at around 11:00-12:00 noon.
Regards, :) Tana
