ok, i will share a little info that i got from the chairman last year freak. so you can compete as a pro and make money all day long and still do local and regional shows in the npc as long as the promoter or no one complains. if someone complains then you forefit your placement in that show. now they have a new thing they implemented a few years back. you can compete as a pro for as long as you want, then q for nationals in the npc see the above. you have to submit to the npc for a renouncement of pro status form and then you are eligable to compete at any national show. so you can do this one time and one time only and you are then cleared hot again as an ameature status. back when i got my freaking pro card in 97 or should i say was eligable from placement to take a card, the npc didnt allow it at all. so i rolled into the npc and went with it from then on. i know of 3 athletes in my area that renounced last year and are now competing nationally. imho they were better in their pro and dont place well in the npc but that's on them haha
