WIU Regional FORMS (Pre-Tournament packet) Instructions 

For the 2022-2023 season, print, complete, scan to PDF, and submit applicable forms as an attachment to the Google Drive folder that has been shared with your coach/team several months prior to the day of the tournament. In order to better organize the PDF scans, separate each batch of forms (e.g., Participant Release form) into one file in Google Drive that includes all pages submitted for that form. These forms are general, so coaches will need to include the year and location of the tournament along with applicable names/signatures.
