The 2006 IJA Numbers Championships saw a mix of familiar faces and newcomers with entrants from five countries. For the first time, this year’s competition included prize money of $100 per event, thanks to a generous donation from Sandy Brown and a matching contribution from the IJA. Silver and bronze medals were awarded for the first time as well. The finals ran shorter than usual, thanks in part to increased minimum starting levels for several events.

Numbers staff: Merry Spahr and Scott Cain (Co-Coordinators); Fran Favorini, Jimmy Robertson, Peter Blanchard, and Scott Sorensen (Judges); and Larry Mock (Assistant)
