add_circle remove_circle expand_circle_down expand_circle_down add remove add_circle_outline remove_circle_outline expand_more expand_less The team captain will need to make the full registration payment when registering your team, as one transaction - no splitting the bill! So, either get organised in advance and get your teammates to give you their share or get them to reimburse you after the registration has been paid for. Please be aware that this registration fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. Your team captain will be issued a receipt upon payment. For school teams only, you have the option to be invoiced for your registrations by using promo code 'KOKODASCHOOLS'. By using this promo code, your school will receive an invoice for your registration rather than requiring an up front payment. If you use this payment method, we will also automatically send you a separate invoice for your fundraising. Please email our team on accounts@kokodayouthfoundation.com if you do not wish to be invoiced for your fundraising minimums. Schools must pay their invoice within one month of the event. MINIMUM FUNDRAISING AMOUNT, DO WE HAVE TO? add_circle remove_circle expand_circle_down expand_circle_down add remove add_circle_outline remove_circle_outline expand_more expand_less Each team must fundraise a minimum amount to participate in the event.If you do not reach this target you will not be able to compete in the Kokoda Challenge. Your fundraising efforts go towards funding the Kokoda Youth Foundation’s youth programs that change the lives of young Australians. Our events were started with the sole purpose of bringing together the community to raise money for the youth programs. Fundraising is a great way to engage with your community and share the message of Kokoda. Read more about our programs. EVENT PACK COLLECTION, WHAT IS IT AND WHEN IS IT? add_circle remove_circle expand_circle_down expand_circle_down add remove add_circle_outline remove_circle_outline expand_more expand_less Event Pack Collection will be held the day before and morning of the event. At least 1 team member needs to come to collect your team's event pack, including race bibs and shirts. Specific details of pre-registration will be emailed to you and your team prior to the event. If you are attending event pack collection the day before your event, please book in a time slot. The booking link for this can be found in your competitor handbooks. SUPPORT CREW, WHO ARE THEY AND HOW MANY CAN WE HAVE? add_circle remove_circle expand_circle_down expand_circle_down add remove add_circle_outline remove_circle_outline expand_more expand_less Our 96km and 48km events require you to have a support crew. A good Support Crew can mean the difference between crossing the finishing line or not. They will meet you at the designated support crew checkpoints and provide essential aid for you to finish the event such as food, changes of clothes, equipment, shoes and if you train them well – foot massages! They also provide that magic ingredient of encouragement and motivation during the dark hours of the night to keep you going. Support crew handbooks can be found on the bottom of the support crew page. There is no limit to how many support crew members you can have, however you are only allowed 1 car space per support crew per team. This means your support crew may rotate but must be able to fit into 1 car. For our 96km event we recomemend swapping out your support crew or making sure they can swap drivers, to give them a break. A support crew briefing video will be released 1-2 weeks before the event, and we suggest all support crew members watch this. I CAN'T PARTICIPATE ANYMORE. CAN I GET A REFUND/ TRANSFER TO NEXT YEAR'S EVENT/ TRANSFER TO ANOTHER EVENT THIS YEAR? add_circle remove_circle expand_circle_down expand_circle_down add remove add_circle_outline remove_circle_outline expand_more expand_less As per our terms and conditions agreed upon at the time of registration, registration fees and donations are non-refundable. Registration fees cannot be transferred to next year's events. Please note that we cannot offer any partial refunds or transfers to single team members However, registrations CAN be transferred to new event locations in the same year. This change is free of charge if made one month or more before your original event date. If the change is requested less than one month before the event, a $50 admin charge will apply and your team name will not be printed on your race bib. To request an event location change, email info@kokodachallenge.com. As a charity, the Kokoda Youth Foundation relies on our events' consistency to run our youth programs, thus the conditions provided are imperative to the charity's functioning. Without this consistency, we would be unable to continue changing the lives of young Australians. If your circumstances are extreme, please email info@kokodachallenge.com for assistance.
