Changes to Qualifying for International Competitions

Moving forward International Qualifying Totals for competitions will no longer be used. Members need to have been a NZPF member for a minimum of 1 year, and team selection will be made using the Carpino3 method (described here).

Removal of Automatic Nationals Qualifying Criteria

Previously rules stated that National champions automatically qualified for the following years Nationals. The NEC have decided this will no longer be the case and participants must do an NZPF sanctioned competition within the 12 months prior to qualify. They must also be a full financial member at the time of qualifying.
