VOLUNTEERING

Please note that all competitors are required to assist with volunteering during the competition - either in the role of "runner", "judge" or "scrambler". These roles will be explained as part of the "New Competitor Tutorial", but you can take a look at this video.

If any parents are willing to help judge or run, please watch the above video if you have not been a judge/runner at previous competitions. We greatly appreciate all assistance during the competition and more volunteers helping out during the competition helps to stay on schedule and not run behind.

If you're a first-time competitior, we would love to have you! It doesn't matter how quickly you can solve the cube - everyone is there to have fun, make new friends, and do their best. If you're on the fence about going, take a look at this video giving a bit of insight into what a cube competition is like. You can also watch this tutorial video beforehand on how you'll complete your solves.

We will also be sending out a pre-competition email before the competition with some more information so keep an eye out for that.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the delegates and organisers - we would be happy to help!
