Important information regarding Registration: Instructors: All participants in this event must use our online registration system.
Please direct all students to the CTFI web site at www.ctfi.org. On this web site, find the appropriate links and click on the link to register.
Please note that the CTFI Web site also has the registration links for the Eastern Championships. Please ask your members to be very careful to select the correct links.

Teams registering for Pre-Arranged Sparring, Team Sparring or Team Patterns as
well as coaches or photographers and full time umpires must also go to the web site and use the appropriate Team, Coach or Umpire link to register for the event.
This saves you, the Instructor, much time and effort collecting and processing
application forms and fees. It also saves many errors as students are responsible for entering their correct weight, height, age, rank and gender or they cannot
register.
After close of registration, a report will be sent back to each school for the Instructor to check for correct weight, height, age, rank and gender as well as the assigned
division for each of their competitors. Please ask your members to be accurate with the information you enter in the form and be careful checking it over after
registration closes. There will be a fee of $20, paid in advance, for any changes required for any mistakes discovered after the final check by Instructors.
*** Instructors are asked to take responsibility for on-line registration of any
students who do not have access to the Internet or do not have credit cards. If there are any difficulties, please contact the help line provided on the on-line
registration page, or the Tournament Director. Instructor Check-in
All instructors or coaches must report to the tournament check-in and pick up the dobok stickers for their competitors. Instructors are responsible for making sure
competitors have these stickers on their dobok as proof that they are registered competitors.
Instructor Check-in will be available on Friday May 17th at the host hotel from 1:00pm until 3:00pm and at the tournament venue on Friday May 17th from 6:00pm

Black Belt Card All Black Belts, all ages, must be certified with ITF headquarters in Benidorm, Spain. When using the on-line registration process, there will be a space for providing the
Black Belt certificate number (e.g. C-2-3425) and ITF ID number (ITF ID number is found on your ITF wallet card). Black Belts who were recently promoted may not
have their certification cards yet. When registering on-line, competitors with this situation should enter "Pending” in the Black Belt Certificate number box. Pending
black belt applications will be confirmed with ITF HQ. Black Belts who have a card from a previous rank will have the same ITF ID number and can get that number from their old card.

Weight Check/Check-in (see below). A photocopy of the Black Belt certificate showing name, rank and date information as well as the signature of the ITF
