For first-time competitors:
There are multiple things a first-timer must know before competing. All newcomers must be familiar with the WCA Regulations before competing. Watch this video for the basic overview of the rules.
In addition, please read this WCA Competition Tutorial before coming to the competition to learn about the procedures for judging.
All competitors:
When you arrive, you will receive a card/nametag with personalized information detailing your events and what group you will be competing in for each event. In addition, you will also receive staffing assignments. Most competitors are expected to help at this competition.
We will provide a judging tutorial at the beginning of the day. This will allow anyone with questions about how to judge to be properly prepared when they are expected to help. We hope that this system will fairly divide up the judging of the competition and make the competition run smoothly for all.
All spectators:
Spectators must remain at least 1.5 meters away from the solving stations when they are in use, as per Article 7b of the WCA Regulations. No flash photography is permitted.
