Team Swap Policy at Events – REC Library

The following policy was instituted for the 2022-2023 competition season in order to ensure fair and equitable access to events for teams on event waitlists.

During Standard Registration, if the event is full, then only teams that have registered for two or fewer events are eligible to be swapped from that organization.
REC Foundation staff will have the ability to manually override this policy if a certain situation warrants an exception, but it would not be the expectation that teams would be allowed to swap if they are ineligible. Therefore, these exceptions would be rare.
When event registration is closed, teams can not be swapped by the coach/mentor. At that point the Event Partner has the authority to allow a team swap or not.
