Events

The structure of our USA Memory Championship this year is just a bit different than last. The morning of the event will feature a qualifying round of four events that will culminate with the top seven scoring Mental Athletes (MAs) advancing to the Championship Round in the afternoon. The afternoon event will be featured on HDNet.

Qualifying: Names and Faces, Speed Numbers, Speed Cards and Poetry
· Raw Scores for individual events will be calculated into Championship Points utilizing a Bell Curve and will be rounded to two decimal places. Please note that after the first three events, the top three scoring MAs will automatically advance to the Championship Round without having to compete in the fourth event, Poetry. The remaining MAs will compete in the Poetry event and then the top four overall scores will advance to the Championship Round.

Championship: Spoken Words, 3 Strikes You're Out and Double Deck O'Cards

Each of the three events will be conducted in a round-robin style tournament. After each of the first two events, 2 MAs will be eliminated, resulting in a three-way competition for the final event. Please review each event for detailed information.
