However, I make the distinction between "academic" and "commercial" because the latter is for profit and makes a hell of a difference. There should be a difference, at least on the entry fee :-) Commercials make a profit out of the name of ICCA if they win the championship so they have to pay that. What I do not understand is how come you can chose what category to register yourself in the event. Somebody mention semi-profesional... what is that?
