About Us
Advancing competitive memory, recognising achievement, and promoting the development of memory sports.
Excellence in Memory Sports
The American Memory Sports Council (AMSC) is an organisation dedicated to the development and promotion of competitive memory sports.
Through memory competitions, performance standards, and a structured recognition pathway, AMSC aims to encourage participation, celebrate achievement, and support the continued growth of memory sports in the United States and internationally.
Our work highlights the discipline, training, and remarkable capabilities demonstrated by memory competitors, while making competitive memory more accessible to new participants.

5-Minute Numbers
In the 5-Minute Numbers discipline, competitors work to memorise as many random digits as possible within five minutes, then reproduce them accurately during recall.
The event offers a clear, measurable way to assess trained memory performance and provides the foundation for the AMSC certification pathway.
