  1. Correct Team Name. Make sure you register with your collegiate team name and ONLY your collegiate team name. The best way to ensure that is to pre-register. It also saves you money, and makes the lives of the promoters easier. Pre-registration saves everyone headaches! If you must register day of, be sure to check the printed results before you leave to make sure your team name is properly listed. If it is not, ask for corrections immediately. Don't wait two days after the race!
  2. Uniform. You cannot wear any part of a USAC club or trade team kit. No jersey, no bibs (socks are probably okay). If you only have a jersey or a t-shirt with your school's name, then wear a plain pair of cycling shorts. You won't be scored otherwise. No exceptions! (see rule 4.3.7 of the NCCA rulebook).
