Here is the information for the National Trials, July 2 at Whistler for a spot at the IDBF World Championships in Tampa Bay 2011.
- Canadian Crews that raced in Prague must notify DBC of their intent to race off by Jan 10, 2010.
- Canadian Crews that were not in Prague must notify DBC of their intent to race off by Jan 11, 2010.
- If a crew wants to race in the NTs, they must all be members of Dragon Boat Canada.
- Plus the crew has to post a non refundable $1000 deposit by Jan 15, 2010.
Dragon Boat Canada National Team Selection Protocol:
"One Application Received. If DBC receives only one application by the due date for a particular Racing Class, the National Crew Director who submitted the application shall automatically receive the right to select, coach and train the National Crew for that Racing Class".
"More than one Application Received. If more than one application is received by the due date for a particular Racing Class, then DBC will arrange a National Trial to be held among Crews selected by the contending National Crew Directors. The national trail for a Racing Class shall be held at a time and place to be determined by DBC, and in accordance with DBC Bulletins and Rules of Racing. Each member of a Crew participating in a national trail must be an Associate Member of DBC." So the Crew that wins their Racing Class, the National Crew Director will receive the right to select, coach and train the National Crew for that Racing Class.
