Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that his amateur competition wins constituted nationally or internationally recognized awards. The evidence did not establish the prestige of the events or the caliber of the competitors. Similarly, his membership on a national team was not proven to require 'outstanding achievements' as the team was formed from the same amateur competitions.
Criteria Discussed
Receipt Of Lesser Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Prizes Or Awards Membership In Associations Requiring Outstanding Achievement
