[NSRCA-discussion] World Team Members

[Scott McHarg]

OK now I'm confused.  Section B.3.5 of the ABR: A national team shall
consist of a maximum of three individual competitors, or three pairs of
competitors, for each category and a Team Manager.  For those categories
that do not have a separate Junior Championships, the team may consist of a
maximum of four individual cometitors or four pairs of competitors for each
category provided that the fourth competitor is a junior, plus a team
manager.

We don't have a junior championship.  Doesn't that give us the ability to
include a 4th as long as he/she is a junior?
