Pre-Requisites

The following are compulsory pre-requisites that teams/individuals must have before they will be permitted to compete in the event. It is up to you to ensure you fulfil the requirements below:

· Each team member must have Australian ambulance cover or an Australian medical insurance policy that includes ambulance cover or travel insurance covering medical costs including medical transportation for an injury sustained during competitive event or an Australian exemption or other ambulance coverage e.g. Australian Defence Force, residents of Tasmania/Queensland etc or similar medical transportation cover such as reciprocal arrangements with your country.

Senior first aid certificate with resuscitation is acceptable.

Insurance

The event organisers have a public liability insurance policy to the value of 10 million dollars. This is a compulsory insurance policy in Australia for events that are organised on, or cross through, any form of government land/public place.

This however is not personal accident insurance for you! It is strongly recommended you have your own personal accident insurance.
