Teams are urged to sign up early as in many cases Events fill to capacity and the Registration has to be closed. All members on a team must be from the same department. Registration will be through our On-Line Registration System (via the FireFit web site). Teams should be registered a minimum of four (4) weeks prior to event in order to avoid late registration fees.

A team or individual is considered to be registered upon completion of the On-Line Registration including payment. Payment may be made by Visa, or Master Card On-Line Purchase Order is also accepted but please ensure you have your Department or Cities Purchase Order # before starting the On-Line Registration.

When registering On-Line the system automatically creates an Invoice which should be printed for Departmental / Union / Sponsor reimbursement.

Refund requests, in the form of a credit, will be honored 14 days prior to competition; thereafter no refund.

The Waiver and Release form must be signed by every competitor prior to participation. The form stipulates that this is a “drug free” competition; by signing the form competitors acknowledge they are not using any performance enhancing or illegal drugs. You will receive & complete the waiver the evening prior to the event.   In order to practice on the course this form must be completed.  In some cases it is necessary to pick-up passes to get onto Fair & Festival Grounds where the Event is being held so it is important to make arrangements for someone to be at the Registration Confirmation.

FireFit will prepare confirmation documentation which must be verified by a team member at the Registration Confirmation held at the event site the night before each competition. Changes can be made at this time so that the Start List can be prepared for the following morning.

The start order is created by FireFit and will be posted the morning of the Event. We do our best to match those competitors who have never raced before against each other. Competitors with times will be matched against those with similar times. The Fastest competitors will run at the end of the day.
