Q&A
| Question: |
I don't have a team- how do I compete? |
| Answer: |
You can compete in individual events which are divided by age group, gender and broken into 500m or 1000m events. The relays can be made up of up to 9 people but a competitor may complete more than one leg of the relay if you don't have a group of 9. |
