Creating Teams
NEW Team Restriction: Teams cannot be bigger than 20 students. Forms with more than 20 students will not be accepted and will be returned.
The following restrictions apply to NEW students competing in MIST in April 2005 and after. Competitors who registered for MIST in April 2004 have the option of staying with their 2004 teams. Students who want to change their teams must follow the rules below.
Private/Public Schools
- If a high school currently has an MSA, the students must join the MIST team from that high school.
- If the MSA as a whole, chooses not to participate in the tournament, the few members who would like to join MIST can still represent their MSA and their high school.
- If the high school does not have an MSA, try your best to form an Islamic educational organization open to students/faculty of any religion, gender, or national origin in your high school, if you do not have one already, refer to How to form an MSA. Having an organization or MSA will make it easier to keep registration organized.
- If you are unable to form an MSA or student organization, you can:
- Try convincing another cultural organization or even your high school to sponsor MIST. as an official extracurricular activity. This may help to ensure that your absence is excused if your MIST-Regional is scheduled to start on a weekday.
- If this does not work, you may still take part in MIST by unofficially representing your school. Print the Parent Permission Letter, get it signed by your parent or guardian, and turn it in to your school. You must follow all other registration instructions.
Home Schooled Students
In order to join MIST, home schooled students must:
- Join a MIST team from the local mosque/youth group.
- If there is no local mosque or local youth group joining MIST, home schooled students have the option of creating a MIST team and affiliating it with the nearest mosque.
Qualifications to join MIST are based on your age and your school grade. Refer to Age restrictions for more information.
