Please complete 1 Registration Form per Family
Please complete 1 SRT Concussion Form per Racer
All racers must be registered with WIJARA to be eligible to race. This process is now online and must be completed by each racing family. Additionally, all required liability forms are now a part of this electronic registration process.
- Please register each of your racers, you can only register one child at a time, you must start a new registration for each child.
- You must sign TWO (2) liability forms WIJARA & Iowa for each racer you register. You will receive an email confirmation asking you to confirm your waivers from Smartwaiver for each liability waiver. (More than likely – this confirmation email goes to your Junk mail or SPAM mail folder.) If you do not confirm the waivers, they are not complete!(These liability forms have been reviewed by each race hill’s legal council and cover liability requirements for each of our four races.)
- WIJARA fees are $32 per racer and must be paid online to complete your registration.
- New Families . . . If you are required to enter a bib number to proceed with registration, just enter 599 or if allowed, leave the field blank. Once a bib number is issued, SRT will submit final roster info & bib numbers will be noted for the season.
