For Trials competitors who do not make it into the Sunday rounds, as long as you still have your wristband on, you will not need to purchase a spectator ticket to watch on Sunday. If you lose your wristband then you will need to pay for spectator entrance.
If an athlete wins 3 gold medals in any higher skill division, they are no longer allowed to move back down to a lower division — regardless of their belt rank. For youth athletes, this means once they win 3 golds in a higher division, they must stay in that division until they move up to the next age group.
E.g. If an 11–12-year-old grey belt (technically eligible for intermediate) wins gold three times in the Advanced division, they must remain in Advanced for all future competitions within the 11–12 age group (until they turn 13 and move to the next age bracket, or permanently if in adult divisions).
If an athlete wins 5 gold medals in the same skill division, they are required to move up to the next higher division — regardless of their current belt rank or promotion status.
