For First-Time Competitors

All newcomers must be familiar with the WCA Regulations before competing. This Video gives a basic overview of the rules.

When you arrive, you will receive a card with personalized information detailing your events and what group you will be competing in for each event. In addition, you will also have judging/scrambling assignments on your card. Every competitor is expected to help out during the event(s) they are registered for. The card will look like the following:

If you have any questions at the competition, talk to one of our staff members. If you have questions before the competition, contact us.

If you do not arive to help during your scheduled event, and there are not enough staff members, we reserve the right to disqualify you from competing.

This competition will be held in the cafeteria of Saint John's High School. [Saint John's High School, 378 Main St, Shrewsbury, MA 01545]

There is plenty of free parking at the venue.

Lunch is NOT included in price of registration. However, competitors, guests, and spectators will be able to conveniently purchase items like hamburgers, hot dogs, pizza, salads, and snacks in the cafeteria.

Before registration opens
If you don't have a WCA account, you should create one here before registration opens.

How to Register
Log in to your WCA account, and click on the register link on the left side of this page. Your registration is not considered complete until you've paid the $30 registration fee via Stripe.

Waiting List
Due to limited space, this competition has a 100-person competitor limit. After 100 people have registered and paid, all additional competitors will be added to the waiting list. You need to pay the registration fee to be added to the waiting list; we'll refund your fee if you don't get in.

Here is the link to the waiting list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_6JgewlJkAgnSJambZoEKng1kQANs-P7a4wD7E5ixxM/edit?usp=sharing

All competitors will be expected to judge and scramble throughout the day.

If you would like to apply as staff, you may apply to do so at this link. Staff members are expected to spend the majority of the day volunteering and working. They will receive free registration and lunch.

Please note that full time staff still have to pay upfront, and you will be refunded after the competition if you are selected, you attend, and are actively helping.

Live results will be posted to WCA Live.
