How to create a new team

When you register for Run For the Kids, the first screen of the entry process will ask you if you wish to be part of a team.

If you are participating as part of a team, you have two choices:

I would like to search for an existing team
I would like to create a new team

To create a team, select the second option.
Enter a team name. When choosing and referring to a team name, teams must choose a name that is unambiguous and not offensive as it will be used at all times for consistency, to assist with administration of entries and processing of results.
Enter a team password. We strongly recommend you include a password for your team to ensure only people you want as part of your team can join.
Enter the team manager’s name and email address. The team manager can be any responsible adult who will look after the administration of your team. They do not have to be participating in Run for the Kids to be the team manager.
Create a team manager password. This password will be used by the team manager to access and manage the team. It is for the use of the team manager only, and should not be given to anyone else.
Select the payment option for the team. Teams can be either Pay Now or Pay Later

If you select Pay Now, team members will need to pay for their own entry at the time they complete their entry details.
If you select Pay Later, the team manager is responsible for finalising the payment for all team members.

PLEASE NOTE: It is important to pay for your team entry as soon as possible. As per the terms and conditions of the event, entries are NOT confirmed until payment is received. If event capacity of 30,000 is reached before your team entry is paid for, your team WILL NOT be able to participate.

Select the distance and category that the first team member will participate in.
Complete the entry details for the first team member. You must complete the details of at least one team member to create a team.
Addititional services – If the first team member wishes to make an additional donation to the Royal Children’s Good Friday Appeal, enter the amount here.
Event T shirt – If the first team member wishes to purchase a t shirt – select their size and enter the quantity.
The final page on the Team creation process shows the details of the first team member. You have the following options:

Register another person – Selecting this option allows you to continuing entering additional team members. Please remember that teams must include a minimum of 6 members in any either distance
Save and Exit – select this option to save the entry and logout. You can then log back into the team later to finalise the team.
Discard and start over – select this option if you wish to cancel creating a team and start again.

If you need any assistance with your team, please contact the Race Office on 03 9292 2901.
