TRAINER'S PASS
Beginning in 2009, the NPC implemented a new policy allowing promoters to offer
a limited number of Trainer's Passes for backstage access. The passes are $50 and
are available on a first-come, first-served basis. The trainer
must also purchase a prejudging and finals ticket - the pass only allows
the trainer backstage
to assist the competitor. To avoid delays in backstage
access, we highly recommend the passes and tickets be purchased in advance. Limit two (2) passes per competitor. If you would like to purchase a Trainer's Pass,
please click here (.pdf).
ELIGIBILITY
All competitors must be a current member of the
National Physique Committee (NPC) and present their 2012 NPC card at

optional Friday check-in or on Saturday. To be eligible to compete

won your weight class in any prior NPC contest. For information on the NPC,
