Red Rock Canyon Classic NRE Event Recap

Dec 15, 2024

The final NRE of the year took place in the desert northeast of Los Angeles, at the site of the 2022 US Nationals. This event was a great example of the use of the fee-waiver (one-day) National Ranking Events available for every club in OUSA to use once each year. This single day event featured mostly high school students, who were able to pick up national ranking points for attending what would otherwise have been just another event of their local competitive series.
