WHAT IS A QUALIFIER SERIES EVENT?


WRC and Major Event producers have partnered together to offer Qualifier Series (QS) events.

Positions are earned by being the highest placing WRC nominated athlete from their respected discipline and leaderboard. These QS winners will compete in the Qualifying Rounds of the WRWC regardless of leaderboard position.
