Additional information can be found on the International FAQ & the International Division Bid Listing.

What types of bids are given to The Summit?

Wild Card Bids:
Teams must indicate that they will accept a Wild Card Bid on their Bid Acceptance form for each qualifying event. Wild Card Bids allow teams to enter the Wild Card Round held on Saturday, May 2nd at the Walt Disney World® Resort. Wild Card teams will compete for their chance to advance to the Final Round on Monday, May 4th. Wild Card Bid winners must pay the full balance to compete.
At-Large Bids:

PAID bid teams will compete for their chance to advance to the Final Round held on Monday, May 4th. Each athlete earning a PAID Bid to The Summit Championship will receive a 4 Night Quad Package price as a credit. No credits may be used for family members or for additional tickets. If a team chooses the Quad 3 night package, the athlete will receive a 3 Night Quad Package credit. If a Paid Bid team chooses not to stay on property then they will receive the Commuter Package for free. *If additional athletes are added to the roster after the PAID bid was earned, the gym is responsible for the full cost of the additional athletes.

Are you allowed to add or replace athletes on the Bid winning team?
You may compete with more or less athletes on the floor than what you qualify with as long as it keeps you in the same division. You will only be able to add or replace 25% of your roster from the time you receive your bid until you compete at The Summit.

*Example:

A team of 16 competes and receives a bid, they can only add or replace 4 athletes to compete at The Summit.
A team of 22 competes and receives a bid, they can only replace (not add) 6 athletes (5.5% will be rounded up) to compete at The Summit.
A team of 18 competes and receives a bid. They can replace 5, or add 4, or replace 3 and add 2, etc.) – This team cannot compete with more than 22 athletes on the mat or with more than 5 of their original roster replaced to stay in the Small division.

*If additional athletes are added to the roster after the PAID bid was earned, the gym is responsible for the full cost of the additional athletes.

All athletes participating on a team at The 2020 Summits must be a registered member of that team’s program during the 2019-2020 competition season. Any athlete that has exhibitioned or competed on the floor with a team in any level from a program (Primary Program) during The Summit competition season (November 1, 2019 – May 1, 2020) will have to have a Varsity Spirit Program Release Waiver signed by the owner of the Primary Program before that athlete is eligible to compete with another program at The 2020 Summit.

Completion of the Varsity Spirit Program Release Waiver is a required process between the Primary and Secondary Program owners. In the event a formal protest is made and the official Program Release Waiver has not been signed, or if the Secondary Program is not able to provide one as physical proof to a Varsity Official, the Secondary Program will not be eligible or will be disqualified depending on the time of the formal protest. All Varsity Spirit Program Release Waivers must be made available at The Summit upon request.

Can multiple teams from the same program location receive a bid in the same Summit division?
If a program has a team that is awarded a bid in a division, a legitimate second team can still compete for an additional bid. To be considered “legitimate”, this team many not share ANY athletes with the team already in possession of a Summit Bid regardless of registration status.

Can Bids be deferred?
No, Bids earned during the 2019 – 2020 season must be used for the 2020 Summit.

Will Bids be passed down for The Summit?
No, Summit Bids will not be passed down. For example, if a team receives an At-Large Bid at an event early in the season and upgrades to a PAID Bid later in the season, the original At-Large Bid will not be given to another team. This bid will be eliminated.

Upgrading Bids
Once your team accepts a bid for The Summit or The D2 Summit, you MUST stay with that specific track to earn a higher bid for the remainder of the season.

Wild Card Bids will only be upgraded to a PAID Bid.
At-Large Bids will only be upgraded to a PAID Bid.

In which hotel will we be staying?

In the event that the Walt Disney World^® Resorts sell out of rooms, The Summit will try to make arrangements with an alternate hotel off property. PLEASE NOTE: Hotels may fill up prior to posted deadlines.

We have parents who would like to come to the Championship. Can they sign up for The Summit Travel Package?
Of course! A lot of coaches meet with the parents and include them on the travel package with their team. However, we encourage family members and friends to register with us directly.

We have an uneven number of girls. Can we pay the quad rate for three girls in a room?
No. The travel package prices have been calculated according to how many people are in each room.

Can we have five people in a room?
No. The Resorts do not allow more than four people to a room.

We are arriving in Lake Buena Vista at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, will our hotel rooms be ready?
Most hotels do not guarantee check in until 4:00 p.m. However, if there are rooms ready in your block, the hotel will check you in early. Please be sure to communicate this to your entire group that is traveling with you.

Our team doesn’t leave Lake Buena Vista until 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. What can we do all day?
Hotel check out is at 11:00 a.m. If you would like, you can take a Walt Disney World^® Resort shuttle bus to Disney Springs^TMto shop. The hotel will be glad to store these items for you, but you will be responsible for picking them up before you depart.

How do I request a refund?
Refunds will be issued after the event is over and must be requested in writing no later than 30 days after the event is over. Refund requests may be emailed to your registration specialist. The average processing time for a refund is 4 weeks from the date the request is received. Refunds are not issued unless a written request is received.

TICKETS AND COMPETITION

When will we receive our Walt Disney World^®Resort Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^® Option for the Championship?
You receive your tickets when you register with The Summit at Celebrity Hall.

Do we use our Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^® for competition?
In addition to Park admission each Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^® Option purchased through The Summit, also has admission into ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. This is NOT considered a theme park admission, and therefore does not use a day on your Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^®Option.

What does “Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^® Option” mean?
A Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^® Option enables you to visit more than one park a day.

Will attending The Summit Celebration Party take days off of my Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^®Option?
For the Championship Celebration Party Monday evening at Magic Kingdom^® Park, a day will not be taken off of your Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^®Option. Please Note: YOU MUST HAVE A WRISTBAND TO ATTEND ALL PARTIES.

If we do not use all three or two days of our Walt Disney World^® tickets, may we use them next year?
No. All of the discounted tickets sold at The Summit have an expiration date that is listed on the back of your ticket.

No! If you are only going to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, you may purchase a ticket at the door for $40 per day per person. However, if you purchase a Magic Your Way Ticket with Park Hopper^®Option from The Summit, it includes admission into the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex as well as all four Walt Disney World^® Theme Parks.
