There are also 7 Pre-Elite classes: Men's A and B on Saturday, and Master Men 40 to 49 and 50 & up and Women's A, B, and Masters on Sunday.  There is room for 12 athletes in each of Men's A and B, but Women and Master Men are each limited to total groups of 12.  Last year's Pre-Elite class champions, runners-up, caber champs, and Class A's and Masters that last year set new field records were invited first.  From the balance of applicants, we then invited the best athletes.  Further vacancies were filled by promptness of application.  As always, applicants not making the cut will have their application fee returned.
