These qualified players/pairs will then compete for the prize money of 50.000 US$.
The points for the Circuit Ranking are earned according to the 2008/2009 Badminton Europe Circuit Instruction which can be downloaded here
At the 2009 Circuit Finals there will also be two Junior Finals. Here it is the top 2 players in the men's singles and the women's singles from the
2008/2009 Junior Circuit Ranking who will qualify.
The qualified players are invited to the event by the Dutch Badminton Association and Badminton Europe, and they will therefore not cover any expenses themselves.
