Copy or print a tournament-day checklist
Copy these fields into your notes or print them for handwriting. This page does not edit, save or send your checklist. Use the current instructions for your event; official event instructions take precedence over this worksheet. Mark unconfirmed details and who to ask. Record only a plan agreed with your coach, and omit private information when sharing.
Fictional entry: “Venue entrance unclear on the official page; ask the organizer.” Put this under unconfirmed details, note who will check, and record a contact only after verifying it. Leave the entrance blank until confirmed; this example supplies no answer from an organizer.
