The following links will take you to the rules for the individual competitions, but be sure to go first to the General Rules as these apply collectively to all the competitions. Then use your browser’s “back” button to return to this page.
PLEASE NOTE! We wish competitors to be aware that while we will do what ever we can to ensure each and every competitor has a chance to compete, some competitions may be cancelled at the last moment if there are too few contestants in a specific event to ensure a fair outcome. Cancellation may also occur due to availability of playing fields, judges, timers, etc.
These rules may be edited up until January 1st.
