2020 Divisions and Bids
Note:
All teams must be registered on AES, paid in full and meet the hotel requirements before the deadline to be accepted into the Northeast Qualifier. Please note that divisions may fill prior to the deadline.
As Philadelphia and the PACC hopefully work toward increasing the threshold on gatherings, we are optimistically planning to accept as many teams as possible for the 2021 Northeast Qualifier. However, due to the uncertainty, we reserve the right to change the max numbers of teams in each division. If necessary, we also reserve the right to request teams to switch divisions due to limitations such as space restrictions, etc.

Club Divisions
The goal of the GJNC Club divisions is to showcase regionally strong teams and provide the opportunity for more teams to participate at the GJNC.
Teams have three avenues to earn a bid for a GJNC Club division (National, USA or American):
- Earn a bid at a NQ (USA or American); or
- Earn a bid through their region's qualifying process (National or American); or
- Earn a bid from their region through the Re-allocation process.
Premier and Club divisions
Club Divisions are intended for teams at an American Division level of competitiveness or below.The Premier Divisions are intended for Open, USA and high American Division levels of competitiveness are may serve as a "Pre-Qualifier" event.It is allowable for teams to play in a non-bid division on one weekend and play in a bid division on a separate weekend. Pending USAV/RVAA approval in October, it may be allowed in 2021 that teams can play in different bid divisions on separate weekends within the same qualifier.
