Hi Chris, the rules for changing classes and/or Divisions are as follows:
CHANGING DIVISIONS and/or CLASSES
1. A competitor must notify IASCA head office in writing of any request for class or division changes prior to competing in the new class and/or division. Failure to do so may result in the possibility of points being incorrectly assigned or even deemed unacceptable.
2. A competitor can move up in a class or division at any time prior to the end of the current season without forfeiting any points accrued in the lower class or division. The competitor must compete at least once in the new class or division prior to the season’s Finals.
3. A competitor can move down in a class or division at any time prior to the end of the current season, however any points accrued in the higher class or division will be forfeited. The competitor must compete at least once in the lower class or division during the same season prior to the season’s Finals.
4. A “pro” competitor who no longer works for the industry cannot move down to the Stock division within the same season. He/she has to complete the season as a “pro” in the Advanced or Ultimate division and reapply for status in the Stock division the following season.
However, the curveball we may end up facing is that you are not already an IASCA member. The first thing you have to do is get registered ASAP.Email me as soon as you can so we can get that straightened up, then we can work at your points. Once you're a registered member, get to as many IdBL events as you can between now and the Finals and collect qualifying points.
Any other questions you have, email me at
moesab@iasca.com, thanks.
