Common Questions

Competitor FAQ

Registration deadlines vary by division and registration window. Early registration (before a specific date) often includes the best pricing. Contact us to confirm current deadlines and availability in your division.

Yes — families with multiple children (or adults) who want to compete can register separately per contestant. Contact us and we can help coordinate everything for your family.

The event runs July 30–August 1, 2026. A detailed schedule is provided to all registered contestants. We recommend planning to be present for the full event weekend. Check our Events page for the latest schedule updates.
