The competition for the teens and masters divisions are definitely taking a step up from previous years. In 2015 and 2016, there were only seven events for these groups and it felt much more like a regional-style event.
This year, however, the Teens and 35-49 Masters already have 8 scheduled events with one more likely to come on Sunday. The 50+ Masters divisions appear to have kept the same number events as previous years – seven.
