World Junior Memory Championships
The World Junior Memory Championships (WJMC) runs as a subset of the World Memory Championships (WMC).
All competitors need to be between 13 and 17 years old to qualify.[1] For many countries, in addition to age requirements, one needs to go through a series of regional and national qualification competitions before they can apply for WJMC.[2] The recent champions are from Mongolia, China and Germany.[3]
