Due to our partnership with Kick It to host the first annual Kick It 3v3 LIVE World Championships, we have made some alterations to the Tour Progression, so read carefully as it is now different. These changes were made to provide an equitable level of play at the World Championships.
1. Local/Affiliate Tournaments: Open to all teams. The top 4 teams in each division will be invited to participate in the "Premier" level of our Regional Stage.
2. Regional Finals: Will feature two divisions per age group - PREMIER - Only teams who qualified at the local level will be able to compete here. The top 2 teams from the PREMIER division will be invited to participate in the Elite Division at the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS. At large teams may be accepted based on application information. There will also be an OPEN division at Regionals where any team that has played in a local 3v3 Live or Affiliate tournament may participate. All teams that participate in a Regional Final will qualify for the OPEN Division at the World Championships.
3. World Championships: Will feature TWO DIVISIONS: ELITE DIVISION open only to the teams that finished in 1st or 2nd place at a 3v3 Live Regional Final. THIS IS THE BEST OF THE BEST! No playing 30 seeds on your way to the Championship, just the top teams from the entire country and world.
The World Championships will also feature an OPEN division for all other teams that have played in a 3v3 Live Regional Final but did not qualify for the Elite division.
There will also be a WILDCARD tournament held the day before the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS to qualify teams for the OPEN divisions that have not yet qualified.
