Clubs that are members of the KNZB automatically participate (provided that a starting number has been entered for each participant) in both the Fryslân Open and the Dutch Open Championship. The ranking of the Open Dutch Championship is a so-called "cleaned up" ranking that only includes participants from clubs that are registered/members of the KNZB. The general classification of Fryslân Open is the total of all participants in each separate category.
The KNZB number must only be completed by Dutch clubs and associations that want to participate in the Open Dutch Masters Championship (in addition to the Fryslân Open competition).
The participant will only participate in the Fryslân Open competition if the KNZB number is left blank.
