Wellesley Fall 2026 opens registration for 65-person speedcubing open
Registration opened July 1 for a 65-person WCA open in Wellesley, where Cube New England is filling another small but busy stop on the New England calendar.
Registration opened July 1 for Wellesley Fall 2026, a 65-person World Cube Association open set for September 19 in Wellesley, Massachusetts. The meet will run at Wellesley Village Church, 2 Central Street, in Village Hall, with a $30 base fee and no on-the-spot registration.
The WCA listing names Benton Tolley, Cube New England and Tommy Chestnutt as organizers, and Chestnutt is also the listed delegate. Registration is open to anyone with a WCA account, closes September 11, and the waiting list can move until the same date. For a formal open at this scale, that means the practical barrier is not the format itself but the limited field and the deadline.
Cube New England is behind the event, and Wellesley fits the group’s broader job in the region: keep official cubing accessible across Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. The organization says it has hosted more than 120 WCA competitions in New England since 2009, worked with more than 2,500 total competitors and was established in 2022 to help manage the area’s growth.
That regional network is visible in the schedule around Wellesley. Cube New England’s upcoming competitions page listed Wellesley Fall 2026 at 24 of 65 registrations, while Mystic Cubikon 2026 was already full at 85 of 85 and Brookline Favorites IV 2026 stood at 63 of 100. The page shows the kind of pressure local meets can face even before the first solve is on the board.
Wellesley also sits below the larger championship tier that New England cubers use as a benchmark. The 2026 CubingUSA New England Championship is open to all competitors, but only residents of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine can win the title. Cube New England says the first New England Championship in Worcester in 2023 drew 294 competitors, which leaves Wellesley Fall 2026 in the more approachable lane where newer solvers can enter the official scene and regulars can keep the season moving.
