The NSSA developed youth
step leagues at the request
of members to encourage
networking and competition
at the state and regional
level. The NSSA initiated
leagues by working with
coaches and community groups
to the first three inaugural
leagues during the 2008 –
2009 step season –Tennessee
Step League, Georgia Step
League, and North Carolina
Step League. The Texas Step
Team Association was
chartered in the fall of
2009 for the state of Texas.
Chartered leagues
competitions and activities
are managed under with
national rules established
by the NSSA. The leagues
and NSSA member teams in
states that do not yet have
full fledged leagues receive
“first dibs” on performance
slots in NSSA sponsored and
sanctioned events.
If you are interested in
having a chartered step
league in your area contact

General members and
leaders of the Step Leagues
are invited to participate
in the Youth Coaches
Advisory Roundtable (YCAR),
which helps set policies and
procedures for the NSSA
youth stepping activity. |

Team Ratings
In the
fall of
2010, the
NSSA will
launch a
rating
system that
will help
teams
determine
how they
rate
relative to
other step
teams across
the
country.
The NSSA
universal
scoring
system is
used at NSSA
events, so
teams can
prepare for
a single set
of judging
criteria,
regardless
of where the
event is
held! Only
NSSA member
teams
participating
in NSSA
sponsored
shows will
be able to
be rated.
Once your
score is
posted you
should check
back on a
monthly
basis to see
where your
team stands
nationally.

Chartering
Form
The NSSA
will have
rating
tracking for
both the
youth
division and
the
collegiate
division. |
