How to register
Select one of the four options below
I am registering for a child who is aged 11 - 18
We use a system called MagicBooking for you to easily provide your child’s details, and ensure that we can do all we can to keep your child safe.
This is a new system so if you previously had a TeamUp account you will need to reapply, don’t worry though we find this easier than TeamUp.
You must have parental responsibility over the child to register them.
Once you have created your account, add your child or children. You will then be able to book any activity (including auctions) that your child is able to do.
I am registering for an adult who is 18 or over who has extra support requirements or otherwise can not sign themselves up
We use a system called MagicBooking for you to easily provide details of a person who needs extra support, and ensure that we can do all we can to keep vulnerable adults safe
This is a new system so if you previously had a TeamUp account you will need to reapply, don’t worry though we find this easier than TeamUp.
MagicBooking uses the term Child for a person who you are supporting, whether you are actually a person with parental responsibility or not. We have asked them to change this.
Once you have created your account, add as many people as you are supporting in the children section. You will then be able to book any activity (including auctions) that person is eligible for.
I am registering myself and I am 17 or over, or I'm 16 but no longer in secondary school education
We have stopped using TeamUp as a registration system as we look to improve our safeguarding requirements.
To register for the audition as an adult attendee, you must confirm that you are 17 or over, or 16 but no longer in secondary education, and the person(s) with parental responsibility is allowing you to sign yourself up.
I am registering myself and I am under 16 or 16 and still in Secondary Education
Due to changes in Safeguarding Requirements and the need for us to keep you safe while, you can not register yourself at these ages. You must be registered by someone with Parental Responsibility, this could be a support worker.
We are sorry for this change but it is necessary
