# Add gymnasts to registration

You've found a meet and reviewed its details. Now it's time to get your gymnasts into the registration. You can pull them from your club roster (fastest) or add them one at a time.

## Prerequisites

* [Find and select a meet](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/find-a-meet)
* Gymnasts in your club roster. If your roster is empty, [import gymnasts from a CSV](https://docs.gymart.org/club-management/import-gymnasts-csv) or [add them individually](https://docs.gymart.org/club-management/add-one-gymnast) first.

## Option A: Import from your club roster (recommended)

1. In the registration sidebar, click **Gymnasts**.
2. Click **Import from Club**.
3. You'll see your full club roster, minus anyone already registered for this meet.
4. Use the filters (discipline, level, year) to narrow the list.
5. Check the boxes next to the gymnasts you want to register.
6. Make sure each gymnast's level and discipline match what the meet offers.
7. Click **Add**.

## Option B: Add a gymnast manually

1. In the registration sidebar, click **Gymnasts**.
2. Use the inline form to enter the gymnast's first name, last name, discipline, level, and date of birth.
3. Fill in any custom fields the meet requires.
4. Click **Add**.

## What happens after you add them

Gym Art Meets validates each gymnast against the meet's rules as soon as they're added. You'll see one of three statuses:

* **Accepted** means everything checks out.
* **Waitlisted** means the level or meet capacity is full. If the organizer enabled a waitlist, your gymnast is in line.
* **Rejected** means something failed validation (wrong age, missing fields, invalid level). Check the [troubleshooting guide](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/registration-troubleshooting) for how to fix it.

If something needs fixing, you can [edit a single gymnast](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/edit-gymnast-registration-data) or [update many at once with bulk edit](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/bulk-edit-registration-data).

## What's next

* [Add coaches](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/add-coaches-to-registration) (optional)
* [Edit gymnast data](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/edit-gymnast-registration-data) if anything needs fixing
* [Checkout with Stripe](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/checkout-with-stripe) or [checkout offline](https://docs.gymart.org/registration/checkout-offline) to pay and submit
