Hints, tips and tricks: 

  • Registration opens October 1, 11:00 a.m. Central Time.  Any coach or team data entered into the system prior to 11:00 a.m. on October 1 will be deleted.
  • Plan ahead and gather the following information prior to October 1:  
    • First and last name from each student
    • Gender
    • Grade
    • Birth month/year
    • Student's home Zip Code 
    • Ethnicity/Race
    • Citizenship
    • Student email (the system will accept any type of data, so if you choose not to provide a student's email address, simply type "n/a")
  • IMPORTANT NOTE:  Even though the online registration system allows you to save team information for future changes, it's in your best interest to complete the registration process as soon as possible after registration opens.   In order for teams to be considered for competition, the coach must enter all the data and click on the "submit" button.  The team roster is filled on a first-come first-served basis.  With a 24-team limit for this event, it will fill quickly. Schools whose applications are received after the roster is filled will be placed on a waiting list.

If you get the "Agent Done" message, simply close your browser completely (Netscape, Internet Explorer, etc.), then open it and visit the site again.
