You don't, However NCA is giving discounts to teams that attend one of their CHAMPIONSHIP competitions. And really, if you're planning on attending NCA nationals in DALLAS, it's good experience in front of an NCA style judge, and to get used to their scoring system and to see what their looking for.

I know CA Bullets are going, I also think Cheerforce is going...Maybe West Coast Mavs and So Cal Outlaws as well.

Cheerforce is not going.
