This competition is participating in the official WCA Newcomer Month 2025. The registration process will reserve 25 spots for new competitors. New competitors are considered to have no WCA ID or a WCA ID with 2025. Returning competitors are considered to have a WCA ID that is from 2024 or earlier. All competitors must still follow all registration requirements for their registration to be considered complete.

Registrations will be accepted based on the following:

• 25 spots are reserved for new competitors.
• Initially, 50 spots are available for returning competitors on a first come, first serve basis.
• If greater than 25 new competitors register before 50 spots are filled by returning competitors, any additional new competitors will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis alongside returning competitors.
• If the spots reserved for new competitors are not filled by new competitors before registration closes two weeks prior to the competition, remaining spots, up to the competitor limit, will be accepted from registered returning competitors.

Online registration opened Tuesday, January 21, 2025 at 11:00 PM UTC and closed Tuesday, February 25, 2025 at 3:00 AM UTC.
