För att delta i tävlingen måste du anmäla dig online här (scrolla längst ner). Vi kommer inte acceptera några anmälningar på plats. Om du inte redan har ett WCA-konto, måste du först skapa ett här.

Anmälan är inte komplett förrän anmälningsavgiften har betalats.
Anmälan kostar 224,25 kr för SveKub-medlemmar, 299 kr för icke-medlemmar.
Alla betalar fullt pris till att börja med, och vi betalar tillbaka 25% till de som är medlemmar.
Att bli medlem i SveKub är gratis! Läs mer på vår hemsida eller bli medlem direkt. När du registrerats som medlem kan du anmäla dig till tävlingen som vanligt. Vi verifierar medlemskapet och återbetalar rabatten senast när anmälan stängt.
