Carlton & Dunlop British Racketlon Open. An FIR World Tour Challenger Event.

Mens A

This category is likely to be limited to 24 players.

Entry is protected, based on a number of factors including rankings, historical class A entry, prior class B winners (moving up). 'Wild card' entries can be offered to no more than 1/4 of all entries.

If you are very good in two sports, and good in the remaining two sports, you should consider Class A for your first event. This would include county players or ex-county players that have typically played a lot of racket sports and at least two sports at club level.

If this is your first event, or first entry in the A category, the ERA may ask you to qualify your entry & reserve the right to move your entry to a more suitable category. As a new entrant, your entry will be treated as a 'wild card' entry.

Mens B

This category is likely to be limited to 24 players. 

Entry is protected, based on a number of factors including rankings, historical class B entry, prior class C winners (moving up). 'Wild card' entries can be offered to no more than 1/4 of all entries.

If you are unsure whether to enter the top category in your first event, have a go at Class B. Class B is normally full of established players who are very good at one sport, and good at a further two sports. Being near to a beginner at one sport is acceptable for this category.

If this is your first event, or first entry in the B category, the ERA may ask you to qualify your entry & reserve the right to move your entry to a more suitable category. As a new entrant, your entry will be treated as a 'wild card' entry.
