What Is USA Memory Championship?
The USA Memory Championship is a national tournament for mental athletes age 13 and older. The official 2026 materials do not identify a separate Junior Division: competitors ages 13-17 use the minor registration form for the same championship, while adults use the adult form.
For the 27th championship, registration cost $40 and is now closed. The July 18, 2026 virtual qualifier used Memory League games for Names, Numbers, Images, Words, and Cards and required a laptop or desktop, high-speed internet, Memory League, and Zoom. The top 12 scorers advanced to the in-person final at Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida, on August 29, 2026.
