The ABF Management Committee has decided to encourage participation by Restricted Players in the 2015 ANC, by providing a subsidy for 2 eligible pairs from each State/Territory other than WA to play in the Restricted Butler Pairs.

The subsidy will be for $2000 per pair and entry fee into the event. The entry fee for W.A. pairs will also be paid. The players must have less than 300 MP on 1 January 2015.

Each association will be responsible for organising the qualifying events in the manner they see fit. The Management Committee is encouraging regions to be included in this process if feasible.

This will begin at the ANC, Perth 2015.
