Could you tell me or where I can find the rules for putting in a team sheet for this years State races? Are they the same rules that apply for the National races? And is there a limit to how many riders you can have?
Sorry for all the question.

I’m sure Janeen will get this one…But I hunted on the NJ BMX site and found this:
NJBMX STATE TEAM SERIES
2006 SEASON
1. There will be one team category’s: State Team.
2. State Teams must turn in their team roster at the first qualifier they race to a NJBMX State Team Representative, Nancy Haugh or Les Vanderhoff.
3. THE BEST FIVE RACES PLUS THE CHAMPIONSHIP RACE WILL BE COUNTED TOWARDS THE FINAL RESULTS.
4. Submitted along with the original team roster there MUST BE A SIGNED COMMITMENT FORM FROM EVERY RIDER LISTED ON THE TEAM ROSTER. This commitment form must be signed by the rider, parent (if under 18) and the Team Manager.
5. Riders who are not on a current season’s State Team roster are eligible to be added to a team seven (7) days prior to the race in which he/she will be competing.
6. When a team drops a rider, the team manager must notify a State Team Representative, in writing of the change in the roster, this rider is ineligible to ride for another team for one Qualifier weekend.
7. When a rider voluntarily leaves a team or wishes to change teams, that rider must notify a State
Team Representative in writing, to have his/her name removed from that team roster. This rider
is ineligible to ride for another team for one Qualifier weekend after the new team notifies a NJBMX State Team Representative in writing of the change in the roster.
8. If a rider has been reclassified, that rider cannot be used on a team sheet in any class until he or
she returns to their original proficiency.
