For the most part, juniors have to have sponsors, yes. But there is
nothing to prevent a junior and his/her sponsor coming in first and
second.

Also, AERC allows juniors past a certain age (used to be 14, somebody
currently familiar with the policy feel free to jump in and correct that
if it's wrong) to petition to ride as seniors. They have to have a
certain number of miles, and they have to have their parents' permission.
They get a letter from AERC that they can present to ride managers, and
they have to get the approval of individual ride managers as well. Some
rides just have a blanket junior policy and do not accept the AERC letters
for any juniors--Tevis is one ride that has its own junior policy and does
not allow the "moved-up" juniors to compete without sponsors.
