Thank you for your interest in the 2025 National Stage Combat Workshop! Please read the following instructions carefully, as this platform is new this year. Zeffy is a donation-funded non-profit platform; you will be asked at checkout if you wish to donate a percentage of your total to the Zeffy platform in order to keep it free for non-profits like the SAFD. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO DONATE, YOU MUST MANUALLY SELECT "OTHER" AND CHANGE THE AMOUNT TO 0%. Please be advised that the NCSW/SAFD are NOT able to refund any donations made during this transaction, as the funds go directly to the platform. Please doublecheck your total before purchasing. By continuing on in the ticketing process, you acknowledge that you are aware of this process and that the NSCW is not liable for any donations made. On the following page, you will be prompted to select a "ticket" for the workshop you are registering for. There are also ticketing options for housing and meals plans, should you wish to purchase them. All tickets do not need to be purchased at once (for example, you might pay for your deposit now, but purchase housing and a meal plan later; or, you might pay in full for your tuition and housing, then add on a meal plan later). Please read through all options carefully to make sure you are selecting the correct option. For workshop tuitions, you have the option to select either DEPOSIT or FULL TUITION. <ul><li style="margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;width:100%;line-height:1.5;box-sizing:inherit;color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">If you select DEPOSIT, $300 is due at the time of checkout.
