How to Register for a Cube Competition in 2025
Are you new to speed cubing? Let's take a look at how you can register for your first competition and what to expect when you arrive.
1. Register with the WCA
The WCA is the 'World Cubing Association' and is the governing body in the world of competitive speed cubing. You can register on their official website by clicking the link below:
(Make sure you select 'I have never competed in a WCA Competition')
2. Finding a Competition
Once your account has been made and approved, you need to log in and visit the 'Upcoming Competitions' page. (The competitions listed on that page are only UK competitions, but you can change the filters to your location).
Once you have found a competition you would like to compete in, click into it and find the registration section.
Registering for a Competition
Okay, so you've found a competition you want to compete at. Now, before we carry on, we need to know a few things.
- Every competition has a competitor limit. Most competitions range from 100 competitors to 300+.
- Registration isn't always 'open'. It usually opens about 2 months before the competition and closes 5 days before.
- Competitions have waiting lists. If the competitor limit is reached, your registration will go onto a waiting list.
3. Registering for the Comp
Under the "General Info" tab, you will find a "Register for this competition here" button. Click it, and you will be taken to a new page where you can select the events you want to compete in. You will also have to pay the registration fee (usually £30, but this can change).
That's It, You're All Booked On!
Get ready! You're all booked on and hopefully ready to compete. Now, just make sure you have the right cubes.
