As more sponsors come in, this amount will increase. What you see right now is the MINIMUM the prize money will be. Last year I gave away $2000 total in cash prizes for two divisions Here is the breakdown for this year. 1a Champion - $1000 2a Champion - $200 3a Champion - $200 4a Champion - $200 5a Champion - $500 This does not include the prize bags of goodies set forth by our sponsors. 2nd and 3rd place in each division get good prizes too made up of sponsor goods. Even the Ladder division gets some goodies as we play for a minimum of a $100 gift certificate to an Online store for each age group (under 13, 13-19, 20 and up) \*note – All contestants in each division are eligible regardless of home of record. Top scoring in each division will walk away with that respective prize even if they are not a California Resident. [Www.calstateyoyo.com](http://Www.calstateyoyo.com) ---
