All players must register by following the instructions in the following section by July 24th, 1998.
National SCRABBLE® AssociationMake sure that your form has printed correctly - some older web browsers are notorious for omitting text during printing. Include the appropriate entry fee for your division as shown in the following table:
403 Front Street
P.O. Box 700
Greenport, New York 11944
Division Rating* Early Fee Late Fee
1 1800+ $75 $100
2 1500-1799 $60 $85
3 1200-1499 $55 $80
4 1-1199 $50 $75
Use your rating as of the July 1st, 1998 ratings list to determine which division you may enter. Players rated in that list within 100 points of an upper division may choose to "play up" in that division instead. If you are an overseas resident without an NSA tournament rating, you will be placed in Division 1 or 2 at the NSA's discretion.
