The registration fee will be a flat rate for everyone -- intermediates, open competitors, and guests -- regardless of how many events you want to participate in.

The tournament will start on Sunday, July 19, with the intermediate qualifications, and the rest of the events will begin on Monday, July 20. The event will officially conclude on Saturday, July 25. On Sunday, July 26, our local arrangements team will ensure optimal conditions so that you all will have an opportunity to casually shred and spike.

We are organizing accommodation for everyone's needs and budgets. Please wait for the official information on the website before booking anything! All of the options will be within very close reach of the event sites. Our hope is that you will not have to use public transportation at all.

We also hereby announce the official Worlds 2009 Video Contest. We will accept all footbag-related videos sent in through July 1, 2009, for the competition. We reserve the right to decide which videos to show at the public screening at Worlds if too many are sent in. The best three will be judged and awarded there. Start filming now!
