There has been some confusion about the Guest rule for this weekend because it is Nationals.
The rules state that a Guest is not allowed at Nationals. However we've seen quite a lot of teams struggling for numbers for one reason or another this weekend, plus some additional confusion because of course in previous years a Guest would have been allowed at MT3. So the Competition Committee has looked at this and decided the best thing to do is allow some relaxation of the rules. The usual GUEST RULE will be allowed at Mixed Nationals, BUT NOT FOR ANY TEAM STARTING IN THE TOP 8. Also specifically the World Games players that are practicing in Mansfield will not be allowed to pick up as a guest with anyone. There are all sorts of problems with making this very late change, and some teams may feel they lose out as a result. But having looked at the pros and cons the Competition group decided (certainly not unanimously) that this was the best option in the circumstances.
