7. Submit Revised Roster

   Once you agree with the other party that a match has been made, please submit a revised roster by re-registering the team. Visit our Online Team Registration page to do this. The team manager is responsible for registering the team, so if you are player whom found a team please inform the team manager that they need to re-register. If you are a team that is still waiting for more players, please wait to register until you have a finalized roster.
