possible chilean open??

[mati rubik]

Hi, I'm a speedcuber from Chile and I want to know how can I organize a competition in my country,
we have an (unofficial) Association really well organized. We already have done 2 unofficial competitions with great results and according to the WCA regulations.
We have raise money to invite a WCA Delegate to Chile, like it was done in Mexico previously. I want to know what is the next step in order to organize a competition, are there some that I'm missing?
I have to remark that at least we are 20 speedcubers ready to the competition and we expect that number increase in case of an official competition.

Excellent. This is how everyone should go about getting competitions in their area. You seem to be very organized and well planned. I hope your competition goes well and hope to see someone take all the SAR's from Pedro, maybe. Have fun.

I'm practicing to keep my SARs and to get them lower, of course
(and get 2x2 and 4x4, which I used to have)

but by what they told me, I don't need to worry, at least not in the competition

Agreed. You can sit there and wish forever, but if you actually put a little bit of work into it, you can have it happen. I just wish more people knew how easy it can be to have a competition.
