Qualifying Times

All events at CubingUSA Nationals 2023 will have qualification times, which must be met in other WCA competitions before you can register for CubingUSA Nationals 2023.

Registration Opening
Registration opened on December 14, 2022. If you are qualified in at least one event, you can register for the competition. If you haven't been to a WCA competition yet, or you don't have a qualifying time in any events, you'll need to wait until you do before you can register.

Adding Events
If you qualify for an event by May 31, 2023, you'll be able to edit your registration to add the event. Once the results from that competition have been posted, you can go back to the WCA registration site and add those events.

Deadline
All qualifying times must be set by May 31, 2023. Any times set after that date will not count towards CubingUSA Nationals 2023 qualifying. All changes to your registration must be made by June 13, 2023.

Qualification Times
Qualification Times are listed on the WCA page for the competition. The requirements are averages for most events, and singles for blindfolded events. Note that you must beat the qualification time in order to qualify. A 40.00 second average in 3x3 is not sufficient to qualify.

Fewest Moves and Multi Blind
Because of limited space in the long events room, Fewest Moves and Multi Blind qualification times are "Top N" standards. The top 50 people in Multi Blind (by single) and 100 people in Fewest Moves (by average, then by single if there is a tie) will qualify. After the registration change deadline on June 13, we will remove everyone from these events who did not qualify.
