-Be prepared to compete when your group/event begins. Make sure you are at the venue for any events you plan to participate in and arrive at least 30 minutes before your event starts.

Tutorial for new competitors
We will have a demonstration showing how the competing process works before the first event begin, but we highly recommend watching these videos to get a good understanding of how solving in competition works. Reading through this guide is also a good idea since it shows most things a competitor needs to know.
It is also important that you read through the WCA Regulations so that you are aware and familiar with the lastest WCA Regulations.
Remember that you only need to be at the venue when you have an event to compete in, but since the schedule might change slightly throughout the competition, we recommend showing up at least an hour before your first event. If you’re not on time and miss the last call for that event, you will not be able to compete for that event. Missing any given event does not bar you from competing in subsequent events (but does bar you from competing in subsequent rounds of events you missed).
Throughout the competition, you will be able to see live results from WCA Live, and there you can see what results you got and whether or not you proceeded to the next round.
If you have any questions, feel free to email one of the organizers, we're happy to help!
Each event is run in groups, depending on how many people are competing in the event depends on how many groups there are. We call each group up one at a time in order to complete their solves during the scheduled time for the round. We have software that automatically picks what groups you are in and who scrambles for each group. This is the minimum amount you should be helping out as it only is for first rounds. We always appreciate extra help!
Please note down which groups you are competing and scrambling in before arriving at the competition!
Throughout the competition, live results will be uploaded continuously by our team through WCA Live

A: Results will be uploaded live throughout the day to WCA Live. Please allow some time after finishing your solves for them to be keyed into the system. You may may check if you’ve made it to the following round after all results in a given round have been entered.
Q: Is there an age requirement to participate? Are there any age divisions?
A: There is no age requirement, but the only requirement is that you are able to solve! There will not be any age divisions because age isn’t a barrier in speedcubing, as with other competitions around the world!
