When the BGA is asked to nominate a representative for an International Amateur Baduk Championship, we select the player with the most points on this list, who has earned points in the last 5 years (amendment by Council 21st February 2010) and is also a BGA member. Their accumulated points will then be reset to zero.
Each year the BGA gets to nominate one player to represent us in the World Amateur Go Championship.
