In May 2020, Varsity announced the removal of Youth divisions from The Summit. Here’s part of what we wrote about it:
“Since 2013, which was the first year of The Summit, youth teams have been able to compete against the best of the best and be crowned Summit Champions. This is now a thing of the past, as Varsity also announced that they will remove all youth divisions from The Summit, starting next season. All youth teams will still be able to earn bids for the Regional Summit Championships.”
