All-Star Summit 2019 Changes

[luv2cheer92]

Just announced changes for next year!

THE SUMMIT:

• Addition of International Open 4 Division at the 2019 event.
• Addition of International Open Coed 4 Division at the 2019 event.
• 5 Teams will advance from Friday Wildcard Rounds directly to Finals (no advancement to Semi-Final/Saturday round)

THE D2 SUMMIT:

• Level 5 Divisions will be offered beginning at the 2019 event.
• No crossovers from athletes competing at The World Championship permitted.
• Bids will not pass down, as they have previously effective the 2018/2019 season.
• 5 Teams will advance from Friday Wildcard Rounds directly to Finals (no advancement to Semi-Final/Saturday round)

Open 4 is long overdue for an end of season event. A little bummed it wasn't there last year, but I'm so excited to see it there next year!
Really interested to see what comes of level 5 being offered at D2 and if that has any affect on the XS divisions/stipulations.

Yes and there have been junior and restricted since the beginning. I believe it is referring to Worlds divisions.

NM i read too fast thought it was for both Summits.

Purely a guess, could be completely wrong. I see this meaning that either XS won't be a Worlds division next year and will just be at D2 Summit. Or it will be at both, but with no limitations at Worlds.

I am curious too. They really need to explain and clarify.

Not sure I’m liking the wild card rule. What’s the difference then between an at large bid and a wild card now?

Just when I was about to age out. Wondering if there'll be any open 4's in my area.. hm

A little biased, but Open 4 is awesome, even without the potential of Summit at the end of the season. If you find a team, do it!

Vas has open 4 this year. They competed in Bellevue I believe and it’s on their tryout info again.

I think only the top team should move to finals. Others to semi finals.

Some of the most popular wildcard divisions have over 70+ teams so I understand why the opened up the wildcard round some.

I like how they're doing it this year and think it makes more sense to have it more proportionate to the division size (ish).

Clarification was given on this topic after the initial release in regards to cross overs from worlds to D2 Summit

Teams who compete at Worlds cannot then compete at D2 Summit. Example - team x competes at worlds but also wants to compete in senior level 5 at d2 summit. Not allowed. But cross overs from worlds to d2 summit will still be allowed.

The divisions that d2 summit will offer will be senior worlds style divisions.
