AWSA Nationals' LCQ By Score Revised

According to the American Water Skin Association's Rulebook, Last Chance Qualification (LCQ) by score for the 2010 GOODE Water Ski National Championships can only be achieved at a Class E, L or R tournament. However, when the parameters for LCQ by score were set this year in the national rankings list, they were inadvertently set to allow Class C scores to be used as well. For this reason, the AWSA board of directors has voted to allow the parameters as they are currently set in the rankings list to stand for this year.
