Level B compulsories at Int. Cup.

ATTENTION COACHES:  Please remember that the B compulsories at the Int. Cup is the Level A compulsories, and evaluated the same as the A level.  Therefore, those who are entering the B compulsories at the 2009 Australian Int. Cup, will be performing the A level compulsories.  CBTF has developed a C and B category with less demanding material than the A compulsories, but these are not recognized by the WBTF.  Ron.
