Per The Rules for Intercollegiate SAFECONs Section I.E.1, the NIFA Executive Committee has set a deadline of Tuesday, February 17, 2026 for qualifying teams to confirm their intent to attend and compete in SAFECON 2026. A registration deposit of $500 is due by this date to retain an invitation. TEAMS MUST DO SO BY FILLING OUT THE FORM BELOW!
Should a qualifying team decline their invitation, the next ranked team in that region will be offered the opportunity. If no teams remain in the region, alternate invitation(s) will be extended based on the alternate list, as calculated per NIFA bylaw 11.12. The Executive Director has a deadline of April 19, 2026 to extend invitations, in order, to those alternate teams. All efforts will be made to notify an alternate team of their invitation, as soon as possible, should a slot be vacated by a qualifying team sooner than the deadline.
NIFA would like to thank all schools, hosts, and volunteers for a safe Regional SAFECON 2025 season. Details on National SAFECON 2026, including registration process (due April 18, 2026), accommodations group rates, arrival briefing, and Chief Judge updates will be posted on the SAFECON 2026 as information becomes available. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
