Important notice: This year and the next one will be a climate crisis memory championships. The climate crisis requires actions from all of us in our everyday activities. Activities that minimize greenhouse gas emissions must be rewarded and so, the process of selecting a Canadian Memory Champion this year and in 2026 will involve rewarding and encouraging such activities in the competitors.
Memory athletes are simply people enthusiastic about using their heads. And so doing the above is an obvious step to take given the current world situation. It’s a wonder as to why other sports organizations aren’t doing likewise. But we’re the sport that thinks and so let’s lead the way. The scoring of the competition results will be adjusted to favor contestants who actively take the right steps to minimize greenhouse gas emissions. Athletes can’t anymore just focus on their own performance; they must act in consideration of others, and everyone’s environment. That’s part of fair play.

Yes, spectators are welcome and you can bring a camera with you. You are free to talk to contestants but they are also free not to talk to you; typically, memory athletes prefer to be left alone in the minutes prior to the competition to save their mental energies.
