The May 1999 guide: "The Junior format is exactly the same as the Decipher Swiss format, except for the following differences: Participation is limited to players 14 years old and younger; Deck size is restricted to 40 cards; Timed games are no less than 50 minutes."[2]
The 2000 guide lists only the age limit: "The Junior tournament is exactly the same as the Constructed Deck format, except for the following differences: Participation is limited to players 14 years old and younger."[3] The June 1999 PDF guide words it as "under the age of 15 years old".[5]
History
By July 1998 Decipher sanctioned "Swiss, Junior Swiss, and Sealed Deck" and offered a Junior Swiss Command Card.[1] Junior results had their own rating: Decipher's ratings page offered "Junior Constructed Deck" in 1999 and still in 2001.[4][6]
