--- title: Initial Event Registration Update description: Event registration delayed to the week of October 3rd due to system issues. Details will be announced by September 30, 2016. --- Written by Frank Merrick. While we have eliminated a number of potential causes of yesterday's registration system failure, we have not identified the root cause. Significant system changes may be required to ensure teams have a positive experience in registering for their initial events. Because of this, we will be delaying initial event registration once again to the week of October 3rd. We will be announcing the details no later than Friday, September 30, 2016. I apologize for this further delay, but we feel this is necessary to give us the best chance at a positive result.
