[Yoheicube]

Hello, cubers.

As you know, Asian Championship 2014 will be held in Japan. To make this competition successful, we hope many cubers will join.

We’ve already started registration. If you would like to participate in the competition, please go to "Registration" webpage (http://jrca.cc/ac2014/comp_regist.php), fill in the application form, and press "Register" button to complete your registration.

After your registration is accepted, a confirmation e-mail will be sent automatically. If it should not be delivered, please send us an e-mail.

Since the hotels in Japan are quite expensive, we'll offer you 2 more options; homestay opportunities and youth-hostel style accommodations. Please click the URL below for further information.

Can't go, parents won't allow and I understand perfectly.

Too expensive for me to go, unless someone wants to sponsor me?

http://jrca.cc/ac2014/prize.php - Is this saying that only Asians can get the prizes?

Hi I am thinking about going for Asian championship (nothing decided yet) I wanted to know that what is the distance between the 2 venues in kilometers? I tried google maps but I was a little confused and just wanted to confirm. Also, the website recommends to book a hotel near ueno station so is there an advantage there as it seems to be far from the venue (I may be wrong though) or any hotel near the venue is ok? Thanks
