With lots of children of longtime Glimmers now entering the tourney, Glimm officials introduced a new prize in 2019: The Glimm Kids Championship.

It’s pretty simple: Any kid under Bar Mitzvah age that enters the Glimm is also eligible to win the Kids Championship.

Of note: The kid must make the picks on his/her own – this isn’t mommy or daddy submitting an entry under baby’s name.

The Kids Champion will receive a free entry to the Glimm the following year. And maybe a certificate.
