Before You Register

All prospective registrants need a WCA account. New competitors can create their own WCA account by clicking here and entering the required information.
​

How to Register Online

The competitor limit for this competition is 30.
​
Prospective competitors register by:
​
1. Signing into their WCA account;
2. Clicking "Register" on the left side of this webpage, selecting the events they would like to compete in, and submitting their registration;
3. Paying the registration cost of $30.00. (The registration cost is the same, regardless of how many events are selected.)
Your registration is not complete until you have paid the registration fee.
​
PLEASE NOTE: If you paid but don't see your name on the registration list within 48 hours of payment (assuming 130 competitors aren't on the competitor list already), please email the organizers. Organizers still have to manually move competitors to the approved competitor list following payment.
​

How to Pay for Registration Online

Payment is processed through Stripe.
​
Click on the "Register" tab on the left side of the webpage to register and pay all in one place! You can start the payment process by clicking "Pay your fees with card."
​

Withdrawing Registration

Registering and paying demonstrates your commitment to attend the competition. However, if you have registered and are no longer able to attend, please contact us via email.
​

Refunds

If you withdraw your registration before registration closes (December 5th, 2026 at 11:59 PM CST), you are eligible for a refund for 90% of your registration cost. After this date, no refund requests will be honored.
​
There will be no refunds issued after this date. Attempting to file a chargeback for the registration fee will lead to being blacklisted from future WCA events.
​
Any requested changes to registration before registration closes will be honored. Your registration is not complete until your name shows up on the list. If you believe you paid and your name isn't showing up, please contact us so that we can assist you.
​
Competitors MUST register and pay online in order to compete. No at-the-door registrations or payments will be accepted.
​

Waitlist Information

We will be keeping a waitlist for this competition. To secure a place on the waitlist once 30 competitors have paid, simply pay the registration fee. If a competitor emails us to drop out before the cancellation deadline of December 5th 2026 at 11:59PM CST, you will be notified if you are the next competitor on the waitlist.
​
Once the deadline to request a refund has passed, all remaining competitors on the waitlist will be emailed letting them know they did not get off the waitlist and will be refunded.
