NEW TO NTCA AND/OR COMPETITIONSUITE? HERE IS HOW TO NAVIGATE!

HOW DO I NAVIGATE?

  • First thing is first...to access any 'Directors Only' information you now only need your COMPETITION SUITE login (the Competition Suite login in is the right corner of the webpage or www.competitionsuite.com).
  • When in Competition Suite, the links for forms, Directors Only News, and access back to the webpage is in the top left of your Competition Suite menu.
  • You can ALSO go from the new NTCA page to Competition Suite and from Competition Suite back to the new webpage with ease.
  • You can utilize Competition Suite as in seasons past with the addition of having access to see all of the forms/documents that you may utilize throughout the season in your Competition Suite portal (ie Policies & Procedures, 2024 WGI Rulebooks-when available-, judging lists, promotion grids, meeting minutes, etc.).
  • If you already have a COMPETITION SUITE account, you will be able to add any additional personnel as necessary to link to your unit. For example, if you have a band director that needs access to your school, you, as the administrator of your Competition Suite registered unit, can add that person or any other techs/staff, etc. You can also remove any previous staff not working with you any longer, etc. (This is also something I can do for you, but you have the ability and we encourage you to do so.)
  • If you are registered in Competition Suite under an incorrect or old affiliation, email me directly and I can change/update for you.
  • If your unit has not competed in NTCA, you will have to add them into Competition Suite upon 2024 Unit Registration that begins September 1, 2023.

If you have any questions, please contact me with any questions at Stephanie Bonebrake, NTCA Circuit Administrator
