Hi, @canton27!
Are you referring to the “Company name (optional)” just below the customers’ name?
If so, there’s a setting under “Appearance > Customizer > WooCommerce > Checkout” where you can hide this from your checkout page. Here’s what it looks like in the customizer view:

Cheers!
Hey, thanks for the help but I still see the fields, I have a screenshot but I don’t know where to post it? It says Participant #1 and then asks for name, surname and email all of which are (optional)
hello,
Sorry but @rynald0s is wromg.
This field will always appear, but if you select OPTIONAL customers do not have to fill it, and they can go to the next step.

Rynald0s has described how to manage the standard WooCommerce checkout fields, but your question is about the “Participants” section.
The “Participants” fields on checkout are not coming from WooCommerce. You’ll need to determine which of your plugins is inserting that section. Then approach the support service for that plugin to ask how to make the participant fields required. This forum is only for WooCommerce core plugin issues.
Hey, Thanks Iorro! I figured it out, it was a plugin called Registrations for Woo-Commerce

Hey, @lorro it’s from a plugin called Registrations for Woocommerce which I need to sell my product however on the plugin there’s no option to remove the optional fields. What should I do?
You could ask at the support forum for the plugin at:
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/registrations-for-woocommerce
Ask the author to put in an option to make the fields required at next update.
If you prefer not to wait, open up this file for editing:
plugins/registrations-for-woocommerce/includes/class-wc-registrations-checkout.php
Use a code editor or a plain text editor.
The 3 fields are specified at lines 136 to 160. Each needs an additional parameter anywhere in the list of parameters:
'required' => true,
Not tried, but I expect that to work.
Remember what you did because if you update the plugin you may need to remake these edits.
