-In the event of one of the 52 players withdrawing from the event on very short notice or if there is a no-show on June 10, a standby will be used to fill the vacancy only in a case where it is impractical to notify an alternate.  Hopeful players are therefore welcome to be present at starting time on June 10 to act as standbys.

 Standby players will be selected in order of PR standings with ties broken by their current NASPA ratings. Any further ties will be broken by a lottery.

-A (y$) designation means the player has indicated interest in participating in the CNSC but has not yet forwarded an entry fee.  Such a player was initially far down the alternates' list and was specifically told that prepayment of an entry fee was not required.  Thus he/she is still eligible to be on the alternates' list.

 * All participants must meet the minimum participation requirement.
 * IMPORTANT!  Anyone likely to be in the top 48 in the qualification standings should contact John Chew no later than March 31, 2011.  A $75 cheque  payable to John Chew must be submitted by any player who is in the top 48 by peak rating.  Those below the 48th spot are encouraged to forward a cheque, but are not required to do so. (Those who fail to qualify will have their cheques returned or destroyed.)  Any player in the top 48 who does not indicate interest in participating in the 2011 CNSC by March 31 will be assumed to have declined and will be ineligible to participate in the qualifying tournaments. Please see the 2011 CNSC event page for further details.
