"International Division?"


Recommended Posts

Actually, both the Yokohama Scouts and Beatrix have members over 22. Jubal did as well this year, though back in 2006 I heard they cut the older members from their DCI tour so they could compete in Division II. In fact, I think North America is the only place where junior corps even exist (though I could be totally wrong about that).

Jubal had overage members is 2006 as well. They were in the International Class then as well.

EDIT: Taipei Yuehfu in Taiwan is a junior corps, even when they're not competing in DCI.

Unless an international corps complies with ALL of DCI's rules like Jubal did in 2006, they will be put in International Class. One option, assuming the scheduling is right as mentioned above, is for international corps with members over 22 to compete in DCA, like the Kidsgrove Scouts did last year.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Yokohama come compete in 2006 in Div II? There was a ton of hype at the time, saying how it was unfair how badly they were going to beat all the US corps. I think they got 6-pointed in their first show, falling behind Spartans and ECJ. After that, they opted to do "International" and won it.

Several errors in your post.

1: They came in 2007.

2: They did not opt to do International because they got six-pointed by Spartans and ECJ in their first show. If by the six-pointing remark you mean to speak ill of them consider how their appearence in DCI comes a month and a half before their season in Japan starts.

3: There wasn't any hype about them coming over and how they would kick everyone's butt.
