National Championship Divisions
Seeding for Worlds, EYYC, Asia Pacific or similar will come from the 5 Championship Divisions – no seeding from X Division. International competitors are encouraged to attend and compete. The player will be categorised as competing in the 'Open' version of the Division and not included in the National Championship order or seeding.
For all Championship divisions, we will be following the Official Scoring Rules and Criteria (IYYF):

*Important note on X Division
For the Championship 2A, 3A, 4A & 5A divisions, if there are less than 5 players in each of these championship divisions, registered players will automatically be combined into X division. This will still be a 3 minute Final.
Also if any of the divisions are a Championship Division (5 or more players) AND you want to compete in X Division you cannot include the same discipline in that division (eg if 5A has a championship division and you compete in that - you cannot do 5A in X division too)
The winner of X Division will not be National Champion – just winner of the X Division.
Do I need to be good to compete?
Nope - ANYC is about participation and fun! See our top 20 players from ANYC 2024 here
There is no amateur division for ANYC 2025. We noticed that most of our past amateur-division players were at a similar level, if not more skilled, than our main Championship division players.
As organisers, we decided that awarding all of our players with an official Australian ranking would promote the competitive spirit. Moving on from Prelims to Finals is definitely a very significant achievement!
If you are competing, make sure to bring your yoyo, back-up yoyos, and extra strings, bearings and pads. Bring a sharpie if you want to collect signatures!
Yes! There’ll be booths from OFFSET, other brands, and some limited edition sales & deals.
Absolutely! Spectators are welcome and it’s a family-friendly environment.
Great! Just come along as a spectator for free and enjoy the vibe.
