Weight Classes

The USIBA closely follows the weight classes prescribed by USA Boxing, though does not name the classes, instead referring to them only by the weight itself. Not all weight classes are necessarily contested at each national tournament.

National Tournament

In the national tournament, boxers are divided into three classes: Beginner (0-2 sanctioned bouts), Novice (0-9 bouts), and Elite (5+ bouts), as per USA Boxing rules. The experience division plays into the final team scoring system, in which more experienced boxers earn more points for their team. This structure also allows for the possibility of, for example, a boxer winning a Beginner championship and then competing for a Novice title later in the tournament, usually on the final day.

Team scoring

Quarterfinal wins: * Beginners earn 1 point for their team * Novices earn 2 points for their team * Elites earn 3 points for their team Semifinal wins: * Beginners earn 2 point for their team * Novices earn 3 points for their team * Elites earn 4 points for their team Championship wins: * Beginners earn 3 point for their team * Novices earn 4 points for their team * Elites earn 5 points for their team

National Team Champions

Champions are as follows:
