Registration

REG NOW OPEN: REGISTER FOR THE OXFORD IV 2009 HERE

Please note:  If you require accommodation / crash, this is also being run by an online form.  Please see the accommodation page.

The registration is to be conducted through an online signup system, which will go live for international teams on 1st August and for IONA teams on 1st September.   We will be running a waiting list system.

There will be an institution cap of 3 teams per institution.

Only teams from institutions recognised by Worlds may enter the Oxford IV 2009.  If we find a team is competing illegitimately they will be disqualified.

Institutions may only register one society at the competition unless those societies have competed independently at the world championships in the last three years.

This means that the following list of institutions may register multiple societies:
University College Cork (UCC Phil AND UCC Law)
University College Dublin (UCD L&H AND UCD Law)
Trinity College Dublin (TCD Hist AND TCD Phil)
Galway (Galway Lit&Deb AND Galway Law)

Everyone else can only register one society. We hope that seems reasonable; if anyone has any enquiries about this or wants to throw abuse, please don't hesitate to get in touch with Ellen or Jo.
