🎓 Certified Coaches & Floor Access
Each athlete is allowed to bring only one certified coach onto the floor during warm-ups, course walkthroughs, their run, or redemption time.
• The coach must hold a current WNL certification
• The coach must have an Urban Playground waiver on file
👨👩👧 Parents or guardians who are not coaching the athlete during their run are not permitted on the floor. This policy ensures a safe and organized environment for all athletes and staff.
⏰ Wave Start Times
Our goal is to keep start times and waves as close as possible to the original posted schedule. However, due to the nature of these events, various factors may cause times to shift.
• Most changes, if needed, are within 1–2 hours
• In rare cases, more significant adjustments may be necessary
If a wave is rescheduled to a different day, and the athlete is no longer able to attend, please notify us before the event and we will issue a coupon code to forward the balance to a future Urban Playground competition in the same WNL season
We appreciate your understanding and flexibility in helping us ensure a smooth and fair competition for all participants.
