Q What is the TEAM/ Club Donation vs. Discounted Entry? There are two variations on each type of team available, donation or discounted entry. When setting up a team, team leaders/administrators must select which option they would like, and no changes are allowed after the initial setup.
- Discounted Entry - By selecting this team option, all participants will receive a 10% discount when registering (except during kickoff pricing).
- The discount will be automatically applied at checkout for the participants, and there is no need to use a code.
- To be eligible for discounts, team members must select your team when registering.
- Donation Entry - By selecting this team type, you are forgoing the individual discounted entries and opting to receive a donation for 10% of the registration fee from all participants who register for your team.
- We'll reach out to the team captain soon after the close of registration for details regarding where to send the donations.
- Please allow up to 4-6 weeks after the event to receive donation checks/payments.
- To be eligible for donations, team members must select your team when registering.
- Only registered 501c3 nonprofits, groups, school teams, or other not-for-profit organizations are eligible for the donation.
- If your team does NOT meet these qualifications, your donation will be forfeited, and a check will not be issued.
- Please note checks can not be made out to the team captain. Checks can only be made out to and mailed directly to the nonprofit organization.
