All competitors must have read the WCA Regulations.
We will have a quick run down before the first event, and explain how to compete and judge. There will be a demonstration by some of our most experienced cubers.
You can register here. Your registration is complete, when you see your name among the other competitors (here).

Most basic rules:
New competitors must bring a valid identification card, to confirm their identity at the competition. A passport or an ID is a good example since it shows your date of birth, and country of representation. We are not collecting any of your personal data by any means! This is only a proof that the information is correct.
You are expected to help during the competition. For each event you participate in, you will then need to judge at least one other group in the same event. If you see an empty spot for a judge at a solving station, please take it! This helps the competition run a lot smoother! Note that if one of the Delegates is telling you to help (and you're a competitor) and you refuse, this may lead to your disqualification from the competition!
Every time there is blindfolded event, there has to be complete silence! It requires a lot of concentration, so please be silent. If you need to talk or make noise, please leave the venue room where people are solving to do so.
No flash photography in the entire venue! The flash is distracting the competitors. However, pictures without the use of flash are allowed.
You are allowed to film your official attempt, as long as the camera's screen is either off or is out of sight. If your camera's screen is facing you, you will get DNF for the solve!
All spectators must remain at least 1,5 meters away from every solving station. We know that the competition is a fascinating event but please, competitors must have their space!
When a round is in progress, then all competitors in the current group must wait in the competitor waiting area, until they get called up for their next solve.
You are not allowed to talk about the scrambles until the round is done! Otherwise, you might get disqualified.
It is our duty to protect the environment around us! Please, keep the venue clean and try not to scratch the floor (as this is a sports hall).
You only need to be present, when you have to compete, in the events you are registered for! We recommend that you are present half an hour to an hour before your first event, since the schedule might change. If you can only be present one of the days, then you can only compete in the events on the given date. If you would like, you can write which day(s) you are coming, in the note, when you sign up for the competition.
When we approach the competition date, you will receive an email. It will contain some changes that might have happened. It will also contain more ‘up to date’ information, which you might need.

Time limit

If you reach the time limit during your solve, the judge will stop you and your result will be DNF (see Regulation A1a4).

Format

The format describes how to determine the ranking of competitors based on their results. The list of allowed formats per event is described in Regulation 9b. See Regulation 9f for a description of each format.
