Steps of the registration:

2) Submitting Personal Data

3) Adding WCA ID
If you have already been to a WCA Competition, then you need to add your WCA ID to your already existing WCA Account. Open the link above and search for either your name or WCA ID, then pick yourself from the results. After this pick a delegate whose competition you have been to and the delegate will add your WCA ID to your WCA Account in a few days. If this is done, you will receive an email notification.

Payments will be processed through Stripe, which is already added to the competition's WCA page, so after registering, the site will automatically request your payment information.

Veljavne prijave bomo potrjevali po vrstnem redu, kot jih bomo prejeli.

Prijavnina za to tekmovanje znaša 15€ (Euro) in se plača preko portala Stripe. Plačilo opravite skozi celoten postopek prijave. Za več informacij preverite stran Registriraj se.

Prijavam, ki ne bodo sprejete in bodo ostale na čakalni listi zaradi omejitve števila tekmovalcev, bomo povrnili celotno prijavnino po izteku prijavnega roka. V primeru, da odpoveste svojo prijavo v napisanem roku, vam vrnemo 80% prijavnine.

Potek prijave:
(Če že imate WCA račun, preskočite korak 1 in 2. Če je vaš WCA ID povezan z vašim WCA računom, lahko preskočite tudi korak 3).

1) Ustvarite WCA račun
Uporabiti morate svoje polno ime. Dodajte e-mail naslov, ki ga pogosto uporabljate, da vas bodo organizatorji lahko kontaktirali. Po e-pošti boste prejeli potrditveno povezavo in s klikom nanjo bo vaš WCA račun potrjen.

2) Vpišite osebne podatke

3) Povežite račun in WCA ID
Če ste že bili na WCA tekmovanju, morate svojemu že obstoječemu WCA računu dodati svoj WCA ID. Odprite zgornjo povezavo, poiščite svoje ime ali WCA ID in med zadetki izberite sebe. Po tem izberite delegata iz tekmovanja, na katerem ste bili, in v nekaj dneh bo vaš WCA ID dodal vašemu WCA računu. Ko bo to storjeno, boste prejeli obvestilo preko e-pošte.

4) Prijava na tekmovanje
Če imate popoln WCA račun, ali ste kot novinec izpolnili vse zahtevane podatke, se lahko prijavite na tekmovanje na spletni strani WCA.

5) Plačilo
Vaša prijava bo zaključena šele po plačilu prijavnine. To lahko storite na strani WCA tekmovanja, po tem ko ste izbrali discipline, v katerih želite tekmovati. Plačila bodo obdelana preko Stripe, ki je že dodan na strani tekmovanja, tako da bo po prijavi spletno mesto samodejno zahtevalo vaše podatke o kartici za plačilo.

6) Potrjevanje prijav
Po opravljeni prijavi in plačilu bodo organizatorji prijave potrjevali individualno. Ko bo je vaša prijava potrjena, boste prejeli potrditveno sporočilo preko e-pošte.

Additional information for every participant (competitors, guests, spectators):

  • New competitors must bring some form of ID to show at the competition to confirm the name, the country they wish to compete for, and the date of birth registered with.
  • Please help judging! As a competitor, your judging assignments are the absolute minimum you should be doing to help out. As second rounds, third rounds and finals have no assigned judges, we really need people to help out whenever available for these.
  • No flash photography under any circumstance within the venue. It is extremely distracting for competitors.
  • During blindfolded events, please stay silent within the venue. This will be most of the time in this competition, so silence will be required almost all the time!
  • If you are a spectator, please stay 1.5m away from competitors at all times as per Regulation 7b. If you are filming someone competing, please stay out of the competitor area.
  • We will be taking videos and photographs of the competition and the environment for our social media pages and website. By attending the competition as a competitor or a guest, you are accepting that you may be filmed or photographed for these purposes.


Violation of any of the regulations may result in the disqualification from the whole competition.


Najpomembnejši kriterij za udeležbo na tekmovanju je poznavanje WCA Pravilnika. Še posebej pravila disciplin slepega reševanja, Člen B in Člen H.

Trenutni WCA Pravilnik in WCA Smernice najdete na spodnjih povezavah, na voljo je tudi prevod v slovenščino:

WCA Pravilnik, slovenščina: WCA Pravilnik
WCA Smernice, slovenščina: WCA Smernice

Prosimo, da jih preberete pred tekmovanjem!

Preberete si lahko tudi WCA vodič o poteku tekmovanja.


Dodatne informacije za vse udeležence (tekmovalce, goste, gledalce):

  • Novi tekmovalci morajo s seboj prinesti osebno izkaznico ali drug osebni dokument, ki ga bodo pokazali na tekmovanju, da potrdijo podatke, s katerimi so se prijavili: ime, datum rojstva in državljanstvo, s katerim želijo tekmovati.
  • Prosimo, pomagajte soditi! Kot tekmovalec so vaše sodniške naloge najmanjši prispevek, kar naj bi storili, da pomagate pri izvedbi tekmovanja. Ker drugi, tretji in finalni krogi nimajo vnaprej določenih sodnikov, resnično potrebujemo ljudi, ki nam lahko pomagajo.
  • Prepovedano je fotografiranje z bliskavico na prizorišču tekmovanja, s kakršnim koli razlogom. Za tekmovalce je to izjemno moteče.
  • Med disciplinami slepega reševanja vas prosimo, da na prizorišču ostanete v tišini. Na tem tekmovanju bo to večino časa, zato bo skoraj ves čas potrebna tišina!
  • Če ste gledalec, ves čas ostanite vsaj 1,5 m stran od tekmovalcev, v skladu s Pravilom 7b. Če snemate nekoga med tekmovanjem, ostanite zunaj označenega območja s tekmovalnimi postajami.
  • Na prizorišču bomo fotografirali in snemali dogajanje v namene lastne promocije na družbenih omrežjih in spletnih straneh. Z udeležbo na tekmovanju kot tekmovalec ali gost se strinjate, da vas lahko ali fotografiramo ali posnamemo v te namene.


Kršitev katerega koli pravila lahko povzroči diskvalifikacijo iz celotnega tekmovanja.
