College program planning
Your institution prepares one program application and a roster for each 2026–27 competition it enters.
Each player provides a season-specific student-status attestation. An authorized coach or program director verifies the roster. Schools retain their own supporting institutional records; do not send academic documents through Discord.
Review the full competition calendar, other-league conflicts, holidays, operating hours, lab sharing, and coach availability. Approved school-specific spring break becomes a bye. Late availability changes enter review rather than silently changing schedules.
Ensure a captain or approved coordinator can check in, contact the opponent, verify the lineup and lobby, preserve evidence, submit/confirm the score, and contact support. Coaches should know the title-specific communication limits.
Master handbook, published game rules, code of conduct, eligibility and roster rules, scheduling/rescheduling, dispute/appeal process, broadcast permissions, and emergency notices.
Each approved team costs $100 for the academic year. A school chooses its own number of teams and receives an itemized institutional invoice after approval. The fee includes regular-season and championship administration with no per-player, per-match, or postseason surcharge. Review the financial policy for deadlines, transfers, and refunds.
Program applications run August 3–28, 2026. Initial fall rosters and payments are due by September 11; later-starting competitions lock four weeks before their regular season. Conference placement is published September 14 for fall competitions and four weeks before later competitions. Game settings, roster limits, evidence deadlines, and postseason formats are in the Version 1.0 game rules.
A reviewed team record, published rules and calendar, conflict-aware schedule, official match and result records, standings with stated tiebreakers, championship pathway, support and escalation routes, versioned rulings, and a season archive suitable for program reporting.
Use the website support route or the relevant Discord help channel. Never post academic records, legal names, private disciplinary details, safety evidence, or confidential case information in a public or school-operations channel.
