Historical rulebook: not the current rules. The current rules are here (USHA One-Wall Rulebook, as of 26 January 2025).

All entrants in any USHA event must be current USHA members.

Age-group divisions

In any division designated by a minimum age (seniors, masters, etc.), the entrant must reach the proper age on or before Dec. 31 of the calendar year in which he participates. For example, a player who is 39 is allowed to enter the masters (40-plus) if he turns 40 by Dec. 31 of the year in which the tournament is scheduled. In any division designated by a maximum age (juniors, challengers, etc.), the player cannot have passed the age of eligibility until the day after the scheduled end of the tournament. For example, a player entering the 15-and-under division cannot reach his 16th birthday until the day after the tournament is scheduled to end.
