Team Entry, Payments & Game Formats

 

To secure your place at the United Winter Festival, it is imperative that all teams promptly complete registration and submit the required entry fee. The timestamp of your registration will be recorded from the day we receive your application. However, please be mindful that team approval is not automatic; you will be sent a confirmation email upon team approval where you will have 72 hours from timestamp to pay your fees. Failure to pay the fees within the 72-hour window will result in your place being offered to a standby team. If your team is placed on the standby list, this indicates either that the age group is fully subscribed or our team is currently assessing your registration.

 

Game Format -  2017s, 5 a-sides Max 8 players per team, 2016s, 2015s and 2014s, 7 a sides Max 10 players per team, Each participating team is allowed to bring 3 coaches/officials to the event.

 

​Should you opt to withdraw your team for ANY reason after approval and payment of the registration fee, the fee cannot be refunded (although a credit might be considered in specific cases). If the United Winter Festival does NOT approve your team or you withdraw at any juncture after being placed on the standby list, a refund will be issued (minus a 3.9% administrative fee) and will be subject to deduction.
