My Registrations
The My Registrations page is your personal dashboard for all tournament activity. You can see every tournament you have registered for, check details, manage bye requests, and withdraw if needed.
Accessing My Registrations
Sign in and go to chessroster.com/my-registrations . You must be signed in — the page redirects to sign-in if you are not.
What the Page Shows
Registrations appear as cards, grouped into three sections by timing:
- In Progress — tournaments happening now
- Upcoming — tournaments that have not started yet
- Past — tournaments that have finished
Each registration card shows:
- Your registered name
- A status chip (see below)
- Tournament name (links to the tournament page), dates, and location
- Section name (the division you registered for)
- Entry fee paid
- Your USCF ID and USCF name (if linked)
Status chips:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Upcoming | Active registration for a tournament not yet started |
| In Progress | Active registration for a tournament underway |
| Completed | The tournament has finished |
| Withdrawn | You withdrew from this tournament |
Only confirmed registrations appear here. Incomplete checkouts — where you started registration but did not complete payment — are not shown.
Players You Registered
If you registered other players — by adding them to the form or uploading a roster — a Registered by Me tab appears next to your own registrations.
- The tab lists everyone you signed up, grouped by tournament, with each player’s section and a Registered or Withdrawn status.
- On your own registration cards, a “Registered by” line shows the name of whoever paid for your entry.
Each player you registered who has their own account also sees the registration in their personal My Registrations.
Viewing Registration Details
Each card has two buttons: View Tournament (opens the tournament page) and Manage Registration (shown as View Details for past events) that opens a dialog. The dialog lets you:
- Edit your bye requests
- Withdraw from the tournament (when allowed)
- Edit answers to the organizer’s custom questions
- Add your section to your calendar
Managing Bye Requests
A bye is a round you sit out in advance. Different bye types award different point values:
- Half-point bye — you receive 0.5 points for that round
- Zero-point bye — you receive 0 points for that round
To edit bye requests:
Open the registration dialog
Click Manage Registration on the registration card to open its details dialog.
Edit bye requests
Use the bye request editor to add or change your bye selections. Available rounds depend on the tournament’s rules.
Save changes
Submit the form to save your updated bye requests.
Bye request deadlines vary by tournament. If the deadline has passed for a round, that round is no longer available to edit.
Withdrawing from a Tournament
Open the registration dialog
Click Manage Registration on the card for the tournament you want to withdraw from.
Click Withdraw
A Withdraw button appears in the dialog if the tournament allows player withdrawals and the cutoff time has not passed. Before you confirm, the dialog shows any refund you are eligible for based on the organizer’s policy.
Confirm withdrawal
Confirm the action. Your status chip changes to Withdrawn.
Before withdrawing, check the refund policy. Refund eligibility depends on timing and the organizer’s policy. See Payment and Invoices for details.
Withdrawal cannot be undone through ChessRoster. If you withdraw by mistake, contact the tournament organizer directly to discuss re-entry.
If the Withdraw option is not visible, one of the following applies:
- The organizer has disabled player withdrawals for this tournament.
- The withdrawal deadline has passed.
- The tournament has already started.
