Beginning in 2012, the NSCA Championship Tour, consisting of five Regional Championships plus the US Open and National Championship, will replace the seven Zone Championships.
Dates for the Regional Championships have been strategically scheduled to minimize the overlapping of other major NSCA tournaments to increase participation at all major championships. The National FITASC Championship will be held in conjunction with one of the five Regional Championships; location will be announced later this summer.
For more information on the new Regions and Regional Championships, please see the Executive Council Report and page 23 of the updated NSCA Rule Book.
