2012 Junior Nationals
**NOTE: Each year the Regional t-shirts sales have been used to offer National Championship entry fee assistance to our teams which qualify for the National tournament. However, please know that this year, we will no longer be offering this assistance. The shirt profits will be used, instead, to keep our Regional entry fees lower for ALL teams...qualifying and non-qualifying. If your team is in the Qualifying division, and if you should earn a bid to the National Championships, please factor this into your budgeting for this year.
Each year USAV issues bid allocations for the Junior National Championships based on current membership numbers. This year, our Iowa Region has been allocated the following bids to the Junior National Championships:
12U: National 1, American 2--reallocation position 36 13U: National 1, American 2--reallocation position 1 14U-18U: National 1, American 2--reallocation position 16
These bids will be earned at the 2012 Iowa Regional Tournament in March.
Girls' Junior Nationals Championships (GJNC) will be held in Columbus, Ohio, June 28 - July 7 at the Greater Columbus Convention Center.
Boys' Junior National Championship (BJNC) will be held in Dallas, Texas, July 1-8 at the Dallas Cenvention Center. Iowa Region National Results
