Title: REGISTER: Bench Press, 22-27 June 2010
Post by: kris on May 27, 2010, 06:07:27 pm
This thread is to sign-up for the 22-27 June 2010 Bench Press meet only. Questions and comments concerning this meet should be posted in the discussion thread (http://virtualmeet.net/community/forum/meet-talk/355/0/).

The deadline for lifters to sign up is Thursday, June 17th at 10PM GMT; after this date, only judge sign-ups will be accepted.

To register for the meet, just post a short reply to this message. This implies that you:
  • HAVE READ AND ACCEPTED THE RULES (http://virtualmeet.net/meets/rules/) (the LATEST version of the rules!)
  • AFFIRM YOUR DRUG-FREE STATUS (again, see the rules)
  • REALLY AIM AT DOING THE MEET, not just thinking about it. Of course, injuries and life can happen, so you are naturally free to cancel your entry if needed.
 

NOTE: FOR THIS MEET WE ARE EXPERIMENTING WITH OFFERING TWO MEET OPPORTUNITIES. Here is how it works:

  • When signing up, please specify whether you are lifting in meet opportunity 1 (Tue-Thu) or meet opportunity 2 (Fri-Sun)
  • When the meet comes around, lift on any of the allowed days for the meet opportunity you selected.
  • The meet opportunity can be changed up until the meet sign-up deadline by posting below.

MEET OPPORTUNITY 1 (workweek):
** 22nd is on a Tuesday
** 23rd is on a Wednesday
** 24th is on a Thursday

MEET OPPORTUNITY 2 (weekend):
** 25th is on a Friday
** 26th is on a Saturday
** 27th is on a Sunday

Further instructions on how to submit the video footage etc. will be sent out via e-mail to all participants after the sign-up deadline has passed.

Those who wish to judge should also sign-up in this thread.

To make sure that you don't forget anything essential, we highly recommend using the checklist (http://virtualmeet.net/docs/meet_checklist.pdf) as a supplement to the rules (http://virtualmeet.net/meets/rules/).

Good luck everyone!

Not at all. :) You are allowed to change the lift time until the end of the sign-up deadline. So noted, have a good one!

Here is the final line-up for the 22-27 Bench Press meet. Seems like the workweek lift opportunity has hit home with twice the amount of lifters in that shift compared to the traditional weekend shift. Thanks to the Finnish lifters who brought forward the possibility of lifting early. We will definitively continue offering the workweek opportunity. :)

It's also great to see many new faces, welcome! Please take extra care of reading the rules and the e-mail you should all have received. If you have any questions, just shoot an e-mail at kris@virtualmeet.net. Also, welcome back those of you who have not flown with Virtualmeet for a while!

We are still missing a third judge (thanks Ben and Marc for volunteering!). If anyone is interested, please contact me. As usual, I will step in myself if need be so we are good to go.

Have a great meet everybody!
