2009 World Youth Scrabble Championship Qualification Criteria


WYSC Qualification Criteria

The 4th World Youth Scrabble Championship (WYSC) is scheduled to be
held 8 to 10 December 2009 in Johor. It is estimated that Singapore
will receive places for 8 participants.

Update: Singapore has been awarded 6 WYSC spots + 3 more for paying participants.

A person will be eligible for consideration to represent Singapore in
WYSC 2009 only if he/she:

* is an SA member and Singapore citizen or Permanent Resident from the
end of the qualifying period to the date of WYSC
* is 17 years old of age or less, as of 31 December 2009
* has played the required number of qualification games at any time
before 31 October 2009, which is at least 16 games in SA-rated
tourneys. Byes will not be used in calculation of ratings. Byes
awarded to a player will count towards the 16 games. Byes conceded by
a player will not count towards the 16 games.
* has an SA rating of at least 1500 at the end of the qualifying period.

The estimated 8 spots will be allocated to the 8 highest-ranked
players at the end of the WYSC qualifying period based on SA ratings
who fulfil all the eligibility criteria above.

Reserves will be selected, as possible replacements for any of the
Singapore representatives in the event that any of the first-draft
representatives are not able to play in the WYSC. Reserves will be
the next-highest-rated player(s) who are eligible as determined by
the same eligibility criteria above.

If any of the WYSC spots is vacant because the player declines or
becomes ineligible, the spot will be offered to the reserves in rating
order.
For any queries on the selection for WYSC 2009, please email your
question to president at toucanet.com. In the event of a dispute during
the selection process, SA Committee will be the arbiter, and their
decision shall be final.
