What to know
The NIKE Finale and Region Qualifier is April 3 and 4, 2027 at the Minneapolis Convention Center. It is the second North Country Region qualifying date of the 2026-27 season.
The qualifying divisions award National and American bids to girls 11 to 13 and girls 14 to 17. Girls 11s to 18s can also enter non-qualifying divisions. The region says the April date lets late-forming club teams compete for a bid.
Teams traveling 60 miles or more must reserve rooms through THS under the Stay & Save policy. The minimum is 12 rooms across the two days of the event. The region-qualifier page lists check-in times only for the February event, so April times are not posted yet.
A team below the room minimum can lose its registration until compliant. It can also face a housing fee up to $1000 and disqualification without a team fee refund.
