ENTRIES OPEN 1 SEPTEMBER 2008

Entry Details

When you enter any of the Paddy Pallin Adventure Races you will need to select the Novice/Short Course or the Classic Course. The entry fee is the same whether you are participating in the Novice/Short Course, the Classic Course or get upgraded to the Advanced Course.

Note that you do not have to do the Novice/Short Course if you are a novice. If it is your first time but you want to jump in the deep end, you are more than welcome to go straight to the Classic Course.

How to Enter

Entry is all online and is very simple.

Step 1 - Create an AROC profile

To enter an event you need to first create your own AROC profile. This means that when you go to enter any AROC event you don't need to re-enter all your personal details.

Your user name is your email address and you create your own password. This is stored securely. You can use your email address and password to log in to your AROC profile at any time to update your details.

You can create a profile at any time. To create an AROC profile <click here>

Step 2 - Log in

Log in using your email address and password. To log in <click here>.

If you have just created your profile and are going directly to enter an event you will already be logged in.

Step 3 - Enter an Event

Click on the enter an event tab which will open up and display the events in which entry is open.

Select the event you wish to enter.

Step 4 - Provide Team Details

a) Provide your team name.

b) Select the course type - either Novice/Short Course or Classic Course.

c) Select your team members.

You will automatically be team member No. 1.

Select your team mates from the drop down list (these are people that have already created an AROC profile). If your team mates are not yet AROC'ers, put in their name and email address where indicated. Make sure the email address is correct. Select the gender of your team mate. This is important as it will enable us to automatically determine what category your team is, ie mixed, all male or all female.

Your team mates will be automatically sent an email letting them know you have selected them for your team. If they do not already have an AROC profile they will be asked to create one.

You can enter an event without your team mates. Just leave your team mates details blank. You will need to log back in at a later time (at least 1 week before the event) to provide your team details.

Press the enter button to continue

Step 5 - Payment

Once you have entered your team details and press the 'enter' button at the bottom of the page you will be directed to the eWay secure payment site. Enter your credit card details as specified and confirm.

You will be sent a confirmation email and a tax invoice if your payment has been successful.

If you are redirected to the eWay home site this means that the eWay site is down. You will need to come back at a later time to pay your entry. Once you log back in to the AROC site and select the event all the team details will be displayed and you can go straight to the payment section by pressing the 'enter' button at the bottom of the page.

Using a voucher

If you are lucky enough to have a voucher (eg if you previously volunteered at an AROC event) then tick the box "I wish to use a voucher" at the bottom of the event entry page (ie after you have entered your team details). A box will then appear. Enter your voucher number and press the 'enter' button at the bottom of the page. You entry fee will be automatically reduced by the value of the voucher. You can use a maximum of 3 vouchers per event.


Insurance

AROC Sport is covered by its own Public Liability Insurance. This does not cover personal injury or ambulance for competitors. We recommend you get your own personal accident and ambulance insurance.

AROC Sport also carries volunteers insurance to cover any person volunteering at an AROC Sport event.


Transfers, Cancellations & Refunds

We understand that circumstances arise where you may no longer be able to participate in the event. You are able to change team members and team categories at any time right up to the Event Day.

If you can't find anyone to replace you and would prefer a refund of your entry fee we are able to provide:

  1. Full refund less 20% administration fee if you advise us by email any time before the late entry fee for the event starts.

  2. 50% refund if you let us know during the time between the late entry date and the day entries close.
