Completing the team roster is important because all of the team members listed on the rosters will receive participation certificates. We want everyone that participated on the team to receive this recognition. Completing your team roster is also important because it determines whether your team is in the undergraduate or overgraduate section (high school teams are automatically placed into the high school section).
