Spirit Challenge

August 7th – August 16th, 2021
(choose your date)

Thank you for your interest in FEMSPORT.

Welcome to our new SPIRIT CHALLENGE! This is strictly an online participation event created as a result of the pandemic. Keeping the spirit, community and camaraderie of Femsport alive is our mission. This new structure helps athletes choose challenges based on their situation (i.e. limited access to equipment, training space, coach/trainer, gym, etc.).

Everyone is welcome to participate in this unique, one-of-a-kind event. We encourage all levels of female athletes and non-athletes to take part in becoming their own champion. There is no pre-requisite and all women adult ages, shapes and sizes have the opportunity to participate in Femsports’ physically challenging events. The following should give you a better idea of the event format and what to expect. If you have any questions…just ask.

NOTE: some changes may be needed to accommodate any glitches we may encounter along the way.

ADULT AGES:

You must be of legal age of majority in the province or territory which you are participating in.

If you are competing in any of these provinces, you MUST be 18 + yrs old: – Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Saskatchewan.

TRANSFER TO ANOTHER ATHLETE
If you are unable to participate, you may transfer your entry to another athlete. To do this, your replacement MUST complete the online entry form. There is a section on the form that asks…”Are you replacing a pre-registered athlete”. When your replacement answers “Yes”, they will be prompted to fill-in additional information and their entry fee is waived.
