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 registration. NPC cards will be available for purchase at the optional Friday check-in or on Saturday. To be eligible to compete in the Men’s Novice Bodybuilding Division, you may not have won your weight class in any prior NPC contest.  For information on the NPC, please visit www.npcnewsonline.com.

ENTRY FEE
$40.00 if postmarked by April 28, 2012. $50.00 after that date.  Add $15 for each additional division entered (cannot crossover between Figure & Bikini or Bodybuilding & Physique).  Send entry form (.pdf) along with check or money order payable to Mike Francois to: NPC Mike Francois Classic, P.O. Box 3184, Westerville, OH 43086.  You may also register at the optional Friday check-in or on Saturday.  If you would like an entry form mailed to you, please call/text (614) 806-3834 or email us and provide your name and mailing address.

RULES & REGULATIONS
All rules and regulations are established by our sanctioning body, the National Physique Committee (NPC). Please visit their web site at www.npcnewsonline.com and click on ‘Rules & Regulations’ for detailed information on rounds, scoring, presentation and suit requirements for each division.

MUSIC
Each competitor (except Figure, Bikini & Men's Physique) must furnish a pre-set CD (no MP3) with only their music recorded.  Music may not exceed 60 seconds.  Vulgar lyrics are prohibited and will result in disqualification.  All Bodybuilders and Women’s Physique competitors will perform their individual routines at the evening show.  Music will be available for pick-up immediately after the contest only (it will not be returned by mail).
