The winning team in each age-based division at each regional qualifier will earn a spot at the national event, which will be held in Green Bay, Wisconsin, right before the Junior Gold Championships.
Each event will include a seeding round and match-play bracket. Teams will bowl eight round-robin Baker match games to determine seeding for the double-elimination bracket at each regional event. Match play will be best-of-three matches until a winner is determined.
USA Bowling lineups will consist of four players using a modified Baker format. Bowlers one and two will each bowl three frames (1-5-9 and 2-6-10, respectively) while bowlers three and four each bowl two frames (3-7 and 4-8).
