Bids for the JNC will be awarded for the top 9 places at the p1440 Futures Tour events as well as to the top 4 places at affiliate events with at least 5 teams in the age divisions.  Any divisions with less than 5 teams will be awarded 2 bids.  We want our National Championships to be a true National Championship for the teams that have earned a coveted bid. Because p1440 points are so important to earn a spot in the p1440 Futures Tour events and bids are at a premium to get into our National Championship event, the affiliate events will have elevated importance and participation numbers should be high.
