Please see below for some important updates to the NCTA Championships.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Please note that due to space availability, the\u00a0General Assembly has meeting time has been changed to 6-8pm\u00a0<\/b>at the University of Texas, Austin Recreational Sports Center on Friday, April 19, 2019.<\/li>\n
  2. The deadline to verify student status via the\u00a0National Student Clearinghouse is April 8, 2019<\/b>. It was incorrectly noted in one place in the packet and has now been updated. Instructions on how to verify your student status are in the tournament packet.<\/li>\n
  3. Gen 2 socks will now be permitted for use at the NCTA Championships.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    After careful consideration and consultation, the NCTA has decided to allow Daedo Gen 2 socks to be used at the 2019 NCTA Championships. Although the Gen 2 socks are not designed for use with Gen 1 electronic body protectors (EBP), we received feedback that athletes do not want to invest in older technology as it is cost prohibitive. Athletes may still use Gen 1 socks with or without heel socks; please note that those using Gen 1 socks will be at a disadvantage against an athlete using Gen 2 socks, since Gen 2 socks have more magnet sensors and therefore will score more easily.<\/p>\n

    While we recognize that those who have invested in Gen 1 socks may now feel the need to upgrade, the NCTA feels that it is in the best interest of the athletes to allow them to invest in Gen 2 as it is future-oriented. Athletes may order new Gen 2 socks at\u00a0https:\/\/www.tkdscore.com\/m5\/G2%20E-Foot–gen2-e-foot-gear.html<\/a>.<\/p>\n
