# Taking part in the championship

Everything you need to play with your team or your child: how registration works, which leagues there are and what to arrange before the Whitsun weekend.

How it works

## Four steps to the championship

1

### Register

Clubs enter teams; parents register their child through the club.

2

### Tryouts

Players show what they can do at the tryouts in their region; the team line-up follows.

3

### Train

In the weeks before the championship you train with your team towards the tournament weekend.

4

### Play at Whitsun

Three days of championship on the fields of Amsterdam Pirates and BSC Almere.
