Registration Details
Allow Registration
Toggle registration on or off:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|

Registration Begins
Set the date and time when registration opens. Groups cannot register before this time, even if registration is enabled.

Membership Group Max Events
Controls whether this event counts toward a group's maximum events (if defined in their membership level):

Use "Exclude" for optional events or events that shouldn't consume membership benefits.

Set the registration fee:
Single Price: Enter the fee all groups pay (e.g., 150.00)
Membership-Based Pricing: If your organization has membership levels with event pricing:

Requirements for Division Availability
A division appears as available when:

If you see "There is no scoring configuration selected":
- Go to Event Details

- Return to Registration to see available divisions
Registered Groups Tab
The Registered Groups tab shows all groups registered for this event:
Group Information
Each registered group shows:

Common Scenarios
A Group Missed Registration
