NOTE: BAT 2008 follows standard NSA practice in accepting as a qualifying peak rating any rating which appears in a published ratings list during the qualification period (in this case, 18 April 2007 to 26 March 2008) or is a final (i.e. not an interim mid-tournament rating computed in a split-rated tournament) rating (not including acceleration points) earned at a fully-rated NSA-sanctioned tournament (i.e. not a Local Club Tournament).

BAT 2009 will use the same system, with the qualification period (QP) beginning immediately after BAT 2008, and requiring Premier players to play at least one fully-rated game during the QP. The end of the QP will be announced together with the dates for BAT 2009.
