Team Entry Information

2010 Special Announcement



Team Competition Rules and Information

You asked for it…you got it!  We are happy to add this exciting element of competition to the Nutley Fall 5.  Register your local running club, group of friends, family or co-workers to see who the fastest team in the Nutley-area is!  Prize:  a Nutley Fall 5 trinket and, more importantly, bragging rights! 

We strongly encourage you to pre-register your team as we will be unable to accept race-day “Team” applications due to the amount of logistics involved in organizing the “team” category.  We appreciate your cooperation and support, and hope you take advantage of this cool addition to the race!

REGISTRATION

There will be a $15 registration fee for all teams.  Each team member must also register as an individual by completing the Individual Entry Form.  The team captain is responsible for completing the Team Entry Form and making sure that all individuals have completed the Individual Entry Form and returned with payment.  Your team will not become part of the final race day roster until all payments are received.  All team registrations are due by October 8,2009.  Team registrations will NOT be accepted on race day.

 

TEAM CAPTAIN

A team captain must be designated for each team and will be the primary point of contact for the team should we need to get additional information to you.  The team captain is responsible for assembling and communicating with team members, ensuring that individual entry forms and team form are completed and all payments and forms are forwarded.  Please be sure that all team captain information is on the Team Entry Form.

SUBSTITIONS AND CORRECTIONS

Substitutions (not additions) will be accepted at the TEAM area of the registration table on race day ONLY if the team has less than the minimum number of three (3) runners needed to score.

 

SCORING

Team scoring will be based on the sum of the net finishing times (among all team competitors), of the first three finishers on the team.  In case of a tie, the team with the fastest third place time will break the tie.
