Registering for a Regional Tournament
Tournaments are scheduled year round – at the Elementary, Middle, and High School levels there are three opportunities to compete (roughly in the Fall, Winter, and Spring). Students may compete all three times for more opportunities to qualify for the National Championship (and for more fun!).

REGISTRATION DEADLINES – All registrations close on the 2nd Sunday (13 Days) before the tournament date at 11:59 pm EASTERN. Once registration closes there will be a Late Registration (Waitlist) Process – For all tournaments, after 1/28-29/2023 there is a $10 per bee registration surcharge ($55 per bee subject) for registering after the deadline. After the deadline has past, we fix the field cap and lock registrations – thus we are unable to guarantee a spot in the competition. If you wish to register late, please follow the instructions on the Tournament’s registration page and if more positions are available – a staff member will follow up with instructions and a link to register and make payment.
