Check-In
There are over 150 teams competing in this event, and all the action will take place this year on Main Beach! To help get us all through registration, we encourage all teams to register Friday evening. We will need to verify all paperwork (roster, waivers), as well as ID all players (photo ids required). In other words, ALL players MUST show up IN PERSON to have their identity verified and to receive their wristband. We will put the wristband on each player once we have ID'd them.
As an alternative, you may send ONE team representative to register the team on Friday to get the paperwork in order. This representative should bring ALL paperwork for EVERY player (waivers and copies of ids/photos), in addition to the FINAL team roster. If players are unable to be there Friday, they may check-in on Saturday (must be at least 2 hours prior to the team’s first scheduled game) to receive their wristbands. Please keep in mind Saturday will already be extremely hectic...and with over 150 teams, the check-in lines may be very long!
Any teams and players who do not register and check in on Friday must do so on Saturday, no later than 2 hours prior to the team’s first game.

The following forms are required from each player on the roster:
- Age verification and identification (prefer government issued photo id, but for those younger players w/o a CDL or passport a birth certificate will suffice),
- ORIGINAL signed Waiver and Release of Liability (executed by player and parent if player is under 18 years old),
- Photo (if not included on a form of id listed above). If the player does not have a form of id with a picture, they need to provide a current CLEAR photo of the player’s face for identification. The photo will be kept as part of our records. A player card may be used as a photo id, but a birth certificate or second form of identification will still be required (birth certificate, government/school id).
Please drive safely, and GO THE SPEED LIMIT. There are several CHP along Highway 17 and the road has several twists and turns. Also, we are very conscious of our impact on this earth. We encourage you to form carpools to attend this event. Please have a shuttle for players and equipment to get to the beach in order to reduce traffic and parking issues. We will have a location to drop players off in front of Entrance 3 (this will be on the site map we put up soon). If you can walk from your hotel, please do so. Thanks!
