Emergency/Bad Weather Policy
In the event of a bad weather event or an emergency cancellation, the financial obligations of the EP will first be honored, then the remaining funds will be evenly distributed to the teams. An alternative method of selecting the World Qualifying spots will be developed in consultation with the RECF.
Let's just all hope this doesn't occur....
Refund and Payment Policies
If the Event Partner cancels the event: The financial obligations of the EP will first be honored, and then the remaining funds will be distributed evenly to the teams. An alternative means of determining the World Qualifications spots will be developed in consultation with the RECF.
