EQS Competitors,

Attached are the invitations for EQS Championships. The invitations include results from the EQS events for this year including regional results and also include wild card spots from the regional events.

The EQS Championship quotas have been increased: 90 mogul skiers will now qualify, 72 athletes will qualify from the Eastern points list and 18 athletes will qualify via their regional championships with wild cards (4 males and 2 females from each region) and 70 aerialists will now qualify, 52 athletes will qualify from the points list and 18 athletes will qualify via their regional championships with wild cards (4 males and 2 females from each region).

All athletes are required to accept their invitation to EQS Championships by March 14^th at 5pm by e-mailing Larry Titus at registration@eastfree.org. The easiest way would be for the HEAD EQS coaches to accept or decline for their whole team. Once you have accepted your invitation you will be given a password to register on-line at active.com. If you are unable to register on-line, then you will need this password to register with the meet organizers.

On March 15^th at 9am EST, the list of alternates will be updated. Any newly qualified athletes will need to accept or decline their invitation by March 15^th at 5pm. On March 16^th at 9am EST the list of alternates will be updated. Any newly qualified athletes will need to accept or decline their invitation by March 16^th at 5pm.

This process will continue until we have filled the event. Remember if we do not hear from an athlete, then their invitation will be considered a decline and we will move down the list. So, if you plan to accept your alternate invitation at any point just e-mail Larry right now and he will send you the secret password as soon as you become a qualified athlete.
