I noticed that this competition is not as large as it has been in the past. Also, not as many out of state teams.

yeah it seems small

Looks like the Sm Sr Worlds division is the division to watch with 9 teams. I'm alittle confused on why they have regular Junior 5 and Worlds Junior 5 divisions. They are not eligible for a bid, so why are they International Worlds divisions?

Looks like 1/2 the teams will get a bid. Good Luck to the all the teams!

I hope they do the bids by scores this year. I didnt like the breakdown too much last year

From the number of teams on the roster, 77, the amount of bids that they give out next year will go down. Sad to see this comp become so small, it was my favorite but it got to difficult with the economy and the holiday season!

SCV isnt going this year, bummer. we had a great time last year,
good luck everyone

I'm very disappointed at the low attendance this year. They should really think about moving this date since the economy is tough and it's so close to Christmas. Oh well...more "Vegas" time for me

Woo Hoo.

Great competition but it is expensive and too close to christmas. 50/50 shot of getting a bid. It looks like the true race for a bid is in Sacramento this year. The line up is stacked for two bids. Good luck to all going for their bids in the next few weeks

Wish this comp was a little bigger, but again gives the teams a better chance at a BID! Good luck Yall, should be a good comp! What is everyones predictions!

Just excited to wake up in Vegas! Yay!!!!1

What is it now??? 10 Days smile

Anyone know how the bids will be distributed this year? I heard the break down is different than last year and that the paid bids didnt have to go to one coed team and one all girl team and that you didnt have to place 1st to get a bid???

Fierce Coach · GURU

Hopefully it just goes off of scores! I think thats the best way!

I think they are giving away too many bids. They should give just one for this competition...IMO

I think the basis for the bids is on last years attendance, which was very high. The divisions are already going up and down attendance wise.
