Now you’re going to compete at one of the Pro Qualifiers. If you place in the top 5 at any Pro Qualifier you are qualified to compete at any of the Pro Qualifiers until Dec 31st of the following year. It is the same for the natural stream, top 5 at either the Natural Canada’s or the Ben Weider Naturals will qualify you in both Natural Pro Qualifiers up to December 31st of the following year. In 2018 top 5 from all open regional shows up to October 20th, 2018 (Canadian National Pro Qualifier) are qualified to compete at all open Pro Qualifiers to December 31st of 2019. If you placed in the top 3 after October 20, 2018 (Canadian National Pro Qualifier) you are qualified up to December 31st, 2019. Top 5 from all Naturals regional shows up to August 4th, 2018 (Natural Canada’s) are qualified to compete at the Natural Canada Pro Qualifier until December 31st, 2019. Top 3 from all Natural regional shows after August 4th, 2018 qualify to the 2019 Natural Canada Pro Qualifier. Top 5 from Pro Qualifiers in Canada are qualified to compete at one of the next 2 North Americans, top 6 to 15 qualify to the next North American. Like the North American’s, top 5 from the 2018 Natural Canada’s are also qualified to compete at the first ever Ben Weider Naturals in Montreal, Quebec and the top 6 to 15 from 2019 Natural Canada qualify to the 2019 Ben Weider Naturals. The Natural Canada is the only qualifier to the Ben Weider naturals. Remember we have added a True Novice division in our regional shows for competitors who never competed. We also have the Novice division for those who never competed or never placed in the top 3 at any regional event. The True Novice and Novice division are for bragging rights only, not a qualification to a Pro Qualifier. Finally, you need to be a current member of the CPA to compete and your membership fee does not cover your registration fee. Memberships run the calendar year (January to December) regardless of when you join your membership expires on December 31st of the year you joined. Ron Hache President Canadian Physique Alliance
