Mixed nationality teams, those without members from a nation that has a national team, will be registered at an equal level of priority as a first national team. We cannot accept any registrations for those interested in competing only in the Individuals Championships; however, volunteers of any nationality, chosen by the Organizing Committee, may be able to earn a berth in the World Individuals by helping run the World Team Cup.

Tournament Registration Priorities
Involve participation from as many possible unique nations.
1st Priority
Unique national team: majority of the players must be citizens of that nation and no players are citizens of a different nation registering a national team.
Examples:
- 4 Dutch throwers and 1 from Argentina (Argentina has no national
team)
- The first German team of 6
- 4 Brazilian throwers, 1 Austrians and 1 Paraguay (Where Austria and
Paraguy have no national team)

Unique mixed teams: no players are citizens of a nation registering a national team.
Example:
- 2 Spanish, 2 New Zealander, 2 Russians (where there is no Spanish,
Russian or New Zealand team)

Individuals: At the discretion of the Organization Committee, consideration for Individuals Championships registration will be only given to players from a nation with no citizens participating in team play.

2nd Priority
Mixed national team: one or more players are citizens of nation registering a national team
Example:
- 2 Spanish, 2 New Zealander, 2 Germans (Where Germany has a national
team already. If the Team would replace the 2 Germans with 2 Russians
with no Russian national team they would be bumped up to the unique
national team category 2 Spanish, 2 New Zealander, 2 Russians)

National team: majority of players must be citizens of that nation.
Examples:
- A second German national team
- 4 Dutch throwers and 2 Germans (where Germany has a national team)

Volunteers of any nationality, selected by the Organizing Committee, may be able to earn a berth in the World Individuals by helping run the World Team Cup. If interested, please contact mail@wbc2008.org
