1. AMJRF has set minimum recommended speed scores for SRSE. The recommended scores are intended to empower athletes and encourage them to continuously elevate their skills and surpass previous achievements. The recommended speed scores are specified at least 350 for juniors and at least 380 for seniors.
2. AMJRF is limiting SRIF to 5 hours. With the current numbers expected for AMJRNC 2026, SRIF would run for 9 hours. Given we have 3 days for Age Division Championships, we are planning to restrict the number of SRIF entries. The total number of entries will be based on actual registration numbers. Our parameters will include looking at age group and gender divisions first, and allow a percentage of athletes based on the size of each division. If there are spots remaining, we may allow some flexibility to coaches to decide which additional athletes are competing. The anticipated number of entries will decrease from 175 to approximately 100 entries for juniors and from 175 to approximately 100 entries for seniors for SRIF. The actual number of entries available will be confirmed after the close of registrations in Sports Engine and communicated to coaches around April 7, 2026.
3. Please note, the number of entries into other Freestyle events may also be restricted. The next events we may have to restrict are single rope pair freestyle and wheel pair freestyle depending on the registration numbers in those events.
4. All club teams need to have a club membership in order to compete at AMJRNC 2026.
