Re: Championship Eligibility Question
If you can wait, they sometimes open it up to everyone (irrespective of tier) at the end of the registration period. This is, of course, dependent on the demand for places. (This demand, perversely enough, is diminished by the fact that a lot of teams see that they're on a low tier, and resolve not to attend the Championship, and instead register to attend more regionals.) Furthermore, there may also be spaces made available during the season—especially if many teams win multiple qualifying awards.

Since they haven't taken 2006 registrations yet, it's always possible that the qualification system will change. Don't bet on anything, other than the fact that you should get on the waiting list as soon as they begin taking numbers.
