Ajax 3x3x3 Series 2023
One day, three competitions! We are running three competitions as part of Ajax 3x3x3 Series 2023: morning, afternoon and evening!
You will only be able to compete in one of these three competitions. Attempting to register for more than one of these competitions will result in only one of your registrations being accepted.
This is a great opportunity to compete in 3x3x3 Cube – the maximum-allowed top-75% of competitors will advance to the second round!
Registration Reminders
You must register and pay the registration fee before your registration can be accepted. Unpaid registrations will not be accepted. Please see the Competitor List and Waiting List sections near the bottom of this page for more details.

There is a competitor limit of 90 competitors.
The base registration fee for this competition is $20 (Canadian Dollar).
If your registration is cancelled before Monday, August 21, 2023 at 11:00 PM UTC you will be refunded 95% of your registration fee.
Registrants on the waiting list may be accepted onto the competitor list until Monday, August 21, 2023 at 11:00 PM UTC.
No on the spot registrations will be accepted.
Spectators are only permitted as companions of competitors.

Competitor List
Registrants must pay the registration fee in order to be added to the competitor list. Unpaid registrations will not be accepted. Organizers manually accept registrations one at a time in the order the registration fees are paid, so your name may not appear on the competitor list immediately.
Once the competitor list reaches the 90 competitor limit, registrants who pay the registration fee will be added to the waiting list instead of the competitor list. Due to the competitor limit, completing your registration within the initial registration period does not guarantee you a spot on the competitor list.
Waiting List
The waiting list is ordered based on the timestamp that registrants paid the registration fee. If you are added to the waiting list you will be informed via an email. Additionally, you can ask about your position on the waiting list by emailing Speedcubing Canada.
If anyone on the competitor list deletes their registration, the person at the top of the waiting list will be moved to the competitor list. After August 21, 2023, the competitor list will be finalized and registrants who are still on the waiting list will be refunded 100% of their registration fee. Registrants on the waiting list may email Speedcubing Canada at any time to forfeit their spot on the waiting list and be refunded 100% of their registration fee.
If the competitor list fills up quickly, registration could close earlier than the originally listed date (August 21, 2023). The waiting list will close at the same time that registration closes.

Please find you groups and judging assignments here: https://www.competitiongroups.com/competitions/Ajax333Evening2023. These "groups" are when you are assigned to compete, judge and/or scramble during an event you are registered for.
Per Regulations 1e2 and 1f2, all competitors must be available to help judge and scramble. If you're unsure how to judge, please review the WCA Regulations, watch this video, or ask one of the WCA Delegates at the competition.
Please plan to arrive to each of your groups five minutes before it is scheduled to begin. Showing up excessively late to your group may result in not being allowed to compete in that event.
What is a competition series?
When two or more competitions are in a "series", it means that you can compete in one of the competitions in that series. This allows more competitors the opprotunity to compete at WCA competitions in the Greater Toronto Area.
For this series, you can compete in Ajax 3x3x3 Morning 2023 or Ajax 3x3x3 Afternoon 2023 or Ajax 3x3x3 Evening 2023, but not more than one.
