------------------------------- IMPORTANT NOTE ---------------------------------
We're in discussions with the CFOA about the ranking for players in the Beginner division from 2008. Many teams will be bumped up to Rookie, because the beginner division (D6) will be geared strictly toward players that have NO tournament experience. Some teams may remain in D6 based on past performance and their overall experience, but most D6 teams will be moved up to D4/D5 Rookie.
