If you haven't both registered for the competition (Step 2) and paid for a ticket (Step 3), you will not be able to compete.

While we encourage you to register through the WCA website, competitors may instead register on the spot on the day of the competition provided the competitor limit has not been reached. The entry fee for on-the-spot registrations is R250. Please note that if the competitor limit of 80 competitors has been reached, you will not be allowed to register on the day. If you register on May 1st at the competition, you can either pay in cash or use your smartphone or other device with internet access to buy the On-The-Spot ticket on Quicket.
