Online World Yo-Yo Contest
editAs a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 World Yo-Yo Contest was canceled. Since the World Yo-Yo Contest could not be held as a result of the pandemic and the various travel restrictions it caused, the Online World Yo-Yo Contest was created. As the name suggests, the contests were held online. The winners of the Online World Yo-Yo Contest do not gain the title of World Yo-Yo Champion, however. The title they receive is that of Online World Yo-Yo Champion (in their respective divisions).
