About USJN
USJN Information
USJN is one of the longest running organizations in girl's basketball, and has been running tournaments across the country since the late 1980s.
The USJN does not require teams or players to register or play according to age. The USJN has grade (class) divisions in which teams participate. The larger tournaments follow the concept of having 32 to 160 teams participate in pools of six, playing five games in four days. Smaller tournaments follow the format of having pools of four, playing three pool games on the first day, and tournament play on the second/final day.
The cost for the tournament covers all fees, team registration, etc. Our regional May/June Challenges are two-day events with pools of four, and playing guarantee four games in two days with tournament play.
In 2010 the USJN Tournaments is expanding to include more young age divisions. The younger tournaments will use age/grade requirements.
