Depending on entry numbers we will be separating age group starts, e.g. Under 35yrs will race together, over 35yrs will race together.
To be eligible to win the naming rights on the prestigious Otago Championship Cup you will need to enter the 19-34 years and OPEN category, if this category is out of your age limit then you will potentially forfiet winning a trophy in your age group but be eligible to be the Otago 2025 champion, this is due to the split starts we anticipate (numbers depending).
