PARENT FAQs
Who can participate in the competition and what are the age groups?
The competition is open to all boys and girls age 14 and under. All participants compete together against each other in one of two age groups (12U or 14U). A participant's age is determined as of July 17, 2018. Therefore, if a participant's date of birth is on or after July 18, 2005, he/she will compete in the 12U age group. If a participant's date of birth is July 18, 2003 - July 17, 2005, he/she will compete in the 14U age group.

If I find a competition I want to attend on the online listing, should I just show up?
Yes. To help in the registration process, please bring a copy of the registration form and a copy of a valid birth document. If there is not a local competition near you, please encourage your coach or league to sign up to host.

What is the Local Competition fence distance and how many swings does a participant get?
Each local host can determine the most appropriate competition format for their Local Competition so long as all participants in each age group compete under the same rules.

My child won at his/her Local Competition. Where do we go from here?
Local Champions will advance to the nearest Regional Competition.
