[quote=Anonymous][quote=FPYCparent]With the 18s season ending much earlier than younger age groups, are there [i]that[/i] many more qualifiers left on the schedule for a CHRVA team to earn a bid?  Just a quick check only shows NEQ and MEQ remaining on the schedule for some of the most-discussed CHRVA clubs.  I also see an Under Armour event in Louisville, but I don't know if that event is considered a qualifier.[/quote]

Nope, 18s season is winding down quickly. The final national qualifiers are always really tough to get an open bid at because there are typically anywhere from 8-15 teams in each of these tournaments that already have open bids, which means that a team does not currently have an open bid would have to displace several of these already-qualified teams to earn the Open Bid (not impossible, but difficult for sure). The Under Armour event is trying to take the place of AAU Nationals for the 18s age group. AAU Nationals for the 18s age group are effectively dead (mainly because they refused to change their date). This event is not a qualifier; it's meant to be an end-of-season event, so I guess you could say it's a championship event for teams that don't qualify for USAV GJNC (for teams that have qualified for USAV GJNC, it would more aptly be described as a great warm-up for Nationals).[/quote]
